Hello--my last bone-marrow biopsy was very promising--white cells coming back and no blasts. Now I am wondering if there is such a thing as remission with MDS, and if so, what does it look like?

Hello!
59yr old male had BMT and CHEMO in 11/2021. WB and PLT seesawed for over a year b4 stabilizing. PLT yet to go higher than 148. Still going every 2 weeks for CBC and follow-up. Taking oral meds, though nothing cancer related. Was on PROMACTA pill until 2 months ago to boost PLT. We see where I stand later this week. Feeling....better than in hospital, yet not 100%. Maybe 70-80% Bit of fatigue, memory fog, lack of stamina. Doc said yet to see evidence of C. Hope it continues to trend well....for you too!
