my wife has not been well enough to go through a stem cell transplant due to bad headaches and sickness so she is not having any further treatment we know she will relapse anytime because she is mds raeb2 and goes to the hospital every 6 weeks what we don’t understand is that they would put her through further treatment but there is know percentages for the stem cell working or surviving the it
since deciding not to have any further treatment because of feeling unwell she feels that she has no where to turn or help
