Bailie,
As far as the label, yes. It is Refractory Cytopenia with Multilineage Dysplasia (RCMD). On the stem cell transplant, we (my wife and I) talked about it briefly yesterday with the doc. The doc said they wouldn't consider it until I were worse than I am now. As of Monday my Hg was 8.2, ANC was 1.4, Platelets were 35K, and my blast count from my last biopsy was 0.5. I am 64. You RAEB-2 may have put you closer to the transplant category. Thoughts???
