Thumbs up bone marrow biopsy and aspiration questions??????

Hi Michelle,

I understand how frightening and confused you feel. I think everyone of us on this site have been right there more than once.

The lousy thing about MDS and it's cousin MPS are that they are syndromes and the assortment of conditions that make them up is hardly ever exactly the same from one of us to the next.

I hope your visit with the oncologist or hematologist goes well and the time till it happens passes quickly. It's the darned waiting that is one of the hardest things to tolerate with these bone marrow conditions.

Wishing you well,

Gene_In_Va
