I have MDS and have been put on the same Chemo with Venetoclax. I have had 3 Cycles of dicatibine and 14 days of Venetoclax. They are preparing me for a Stem Cell Transplant. I have another Bone Marrow Bx next Tuesday to see if blast are down.

Hi @marylou329. Wishing you only good news with your upcoming BMBX next week! A goofy joke between my transplant team and me was “ Yep, life’s a blast until you find them in your blood.” I said goofy, not funny! Gallows humor and all…
Joking aside, I hope you’ve had success in lowering the blast count. The cleaner you go into transplant the more favorable the outcome.
Will you please let me know what you find out with your results?
