usmcmom- Every other week for injections? You are on watch and wait with the MDS? Is this your only solution? What are you getting injections of April-September.
I had MDS and was offered a watch and wait or a bone marrow transplant. I already just walked through breast cancer, so I said BMT! Have they offered that procedure. I am interested in seeing why they are treating you as they are. I hope you feel good, so those 3–5-year-olds can enjoy your teaching.

I am taking Aransp & neuopogen(Sp)
I was taking Plavix for a blood thinner, as I got a blood clot on the right side of my brain. Not due to heart problems as my PCP doc had me on a 28 day heart monitor and everything about my heart was in the normal range. I don’t want the BMT, because my age is against me and I do not want to recuperate at a nursing home. My husband has been gone for almost 12 years now and I have no caregivers. I am ok with
that because as long as I go every other week, and I am asymptomatic, I feel no pain.
