Yes, I have MDS5q- and I did not want to have a bone marrow transplant, etc. I was diagnosed in December of 2023 and it didn’t become aggressive until early summer of 2024. I’m now dependent on blood transfusions every two weeks or so when hemo is in lower 7s. Finally, I’ll get to my question! I am a 77 yr old woman.and in Pallative care. I have had 7 blood transfusions which make me feel great. My oncologist tells me that the transfusions will stop working at
15 to 20 times as my body will recognize its foreign, etc. I cannot find any info stating that. Is anyone heard this? Thank you so very much for your time and care. Linda
