Hi Anne - glad to "see" you but sorry for what brings you here. Darice's advice is great. Stay positive.
Darice, you do sound like an expert now! Your summary of the testing sounds spot on. Greg did a nice job of explaining the difference beteen karyotype and FISH. It sounds so simple put in those terms.
Yes, my MDS was de novo, of unknown origin. I've always been amazingly healthy.
