my husband has mds

Post by hebeho27 » 30 Sep 2010 12:10

My husband has recently been diagnosed with low risk RA. It appears that his blood tests were abnormal 4 years ago, but his G.P. didn't notice this. He has no symptoms and we are waiting to see his specialist in October for a check up. We do not know the results of his chromosome tests yet, and are not sure what his blood test results are. His specialist told us that he had a median survival rate of 4 to 7 years, and then started telling us about how it could develop into A.M.L. He then told us to go home and forget about it, enjoy ourselves and go on holidays. I think we need a second opinion, my husband is 66 and very fit. I need more information but don't want to depress myself by looking on internet sites.
