Don't listen to anyone telling you to use Medicare. Go back through that persons other responses and you will find that Marrow Forums is his entire life. He has made comments on just about every forum there is.

Buddy letters should serve you well at the region. It is a miracle that you got a VA doctor to actually opine that your exposure to AO is 50/50 cause of your MDS.
I agree with Bob. I have gotten excellent care for several problems at the VA including MDS. If you treat the folks at the VA with some respect the will in turn go out of their way to help you.
