Too old for a BMT?

Hi there
My mum was diagnosed with MDS 6 years ago (when she was 60) and we have a appointment with her haem consultant this Friday. We are ready for the worst as my mum is now convinced she has developed AML, as her symptoms have changed drstically in the last couple of months ans she's not really ebeneifitting from transifusion (3 units every 3 weeks) as she once was.

I was just wonedring if anyone knows whether a BMT at her age - 66 - is plausible?

Many thanks Jacqui (Liverpool, England)
