We believe my wife had MDS all along, even though her original diagnosis was AA for which she received ATG.
Even if some doctors think it could have been AA that progressed to MDS, and that the treatment could have affected that, I don't know that it would have changed the treatment decision. As long as the best information indicates a diagnosis of AA, ATG has a great track record. In other words, even if a statistical risk of progression is found, the risk without ATG may still be higher.
