For those of you who are following Tracey's progress, she is still in the hospital. She asked me to post this message:

I got good news today - the bmb showed the leukemia was completely gone from the marrow!

Hope everyone is doing well.

very glad to hear the chemo did it's job
Tracey,

very glad that you got some good news after chemo

my father has recently been diagnosed with MDS and it's already progressed to AML with 40% blasts.
he is scheduled to start chemo (Dacogen) next week

I'm praying that he also has some success at knocking out the blasts.

I wish you well.

Matt

I was just diagnosed with exactly what you were originally diagnosed with, and we are about the same age. The doctor I will see every three months has focused on MDS for years and told me watch and wait, just like you. The only blood issue now is my hemoglobin, which is still over 11. I presume that level can change at any time. I need a little help putting all this in perspective.
