Hi @bettersleep68 I know you’re struggling with this diagnosis. I’d like to refer you back to some earlier conversations we’ve had.

I’m not sure if you saw this reply or not: https://connect.mayoclinic.org/comment/1251591/

I also think you’ll find encouragement with the conversations with other members like @lindag1 @dancouclanel4, who have AML and are being successfully treated and holding in remission.

I’ve been exactly where you are that’s why I can tell you from experience that the most helpful thing you can do for yourself is to try and have faith in your doctors to use their knowledge, education and experience to help you through this challenging time right now. Put the worry on their shoulders while you focus on staying healthy, as upbeat as possible, getting some daily exercise, eating foods rich in antioxidants, along with lean proteins, and drinking plenty of water daily.

You are in possession of strength and resilience you didn’t think possible. But stay focused on the future and find little things daily that bring joy to you even if it’s for a moment at a time.

Where are you in the chemo cycle. When was the last dose of your first round?
