I am a two time (since 2006) cancer survivor. I was given high doses of radiation and chemotherapy. Now (2012) I have been diagnosed with secondary MDS with Thrombocytopenia (platelets), Pernicous Anemia and Normochromic Anemia. I also have autoimmune disease as a result of five anaphylactic reactions to tetanus, penicillin and sulphur dioxide. Psycologically I am strong, Just find my short-term memory is not as good as it used to be. Anyway, knowing in detail what you are dealing with better prepares you to deal with it. So, does anyone out there know what exactly an MDS sufferer goes through in the two or so years before they pass. I would like detail please, not that I am morbid, but because I wish to live as full a life as possible. Many thanks. T
