As u all know I have been feeling pretty crap for a few months now (since June), after having a number of blood transfusions & 2 bone marrow tests done, I have been given a confirmed diagnosis.
I saw the consultant today (along with my hubby), who has confirmed that I have acute myeloid leukemia. I have to have another blood transfusion on Friday, then start a course of aggressive chemo in about 2 weeks, followed by a bone marrow transplant. I shall loose my hair (this I'm not bothered about).
They say that they've caught it at the start & treatment should start straight away. As u can imagine this has come as a shock, even though we were semi told 2 weeks ago.
