intro from los angeles

hello from los angeles i have recently as of few day ago been dx with MDS. it is a complication of my chronic lymphocytic leukemia treatments . i have had platelet problems from the start and have had to deal with bone marrow failure before but i know this is going to be a new challenge in treatment issues. i have been looking into a MUD transplant for the past year at city of hope. i am not sure of what this new diagnosis will mean in my treatment decisions yet . look forward to reading the forum and getting an idea of possibly what to expect. cheers otter
