Myelodyplastic Syndrome (MDS)

Hi. In my previous post I wrote about reaching a point 18months after completing FCR where my bone marrow stopped producing red cells. This got a diagnosis of MDS which was expected to be irreversible. After several months and 6 blood transfusions I'm thrilled to say my marrow is back in action and red cell count is healthy! So the diagnosis, thankfully, was incorrect but my haematologist remains uncertain about the cause. Much better than regular transfusions for the rest of my life!
