Ryan, my husband was diagnosis with MDS and just 1% from AML in August of 22 at 68. He was a workout daily person and had been watched for years for a low white count (now we know that was MGUS) and he became really exhausted and could hardly exercise or even walk and his white count dropped significantly. So off to the hematologist and then bone marrow biopsy. From the biopsy saw oncology on Tues and chemo started on Thursday. Bam. After the first round of the strong chemo he got very sick and was told he wouldn’t be able to have a transplant but with a new program they started with PT they were able to get him strong enough and he had his transplant Feb 23 and is now a year out and the cancer is gone. Donor remains 100%. Be turned 70 in December and we weren’t sure he would get to that. So please keep him active and exercising as much as possible. Keep up his spirits but yes the transplant is said to be the only cure but we were going the path of the alternative options and now. Have your faith and live day to day sometimes. It isn’t easy and unfortunately for my husband it is Parkinson’s that is his issues now. Cancer is gone. Amen
