My diagnosis is Myelodysplastic syndrome. And based my current blookwork, I am in the low risk category, whihc implies a 75% survial of more than 10 years: pretty good. But I am anemic as well as immunocompromised.I am too old for a stem cell transplant. That, and blood transfusions could result in infections, and the blasts cells to accelerate. In other words, I am ok for a while, unless I get an infection. But that risk, coupled with beeing anemic, is a bit of a "pain". Nothing is simple, and all of our conditions seem to be different...
