MDS/Leukemia
It can begin as a harmless case of fatigue but can lead to a blood transfusion or possible bone marrow transplant. It’s a disease virtually unknown to the general public and often not diagnosed by medical caregivers. Mylodysplastic syndrome, or MDS, is a disorder of the bone marrow and can lead to leukemia and eventually death. In this episode, success stories abound as researchers struggle to find answers.
ITN would like to thank the Myelodysplastic Syndromes Foundation (MDS Foundation) for their work in establishing the MDS Centers of Excellence program, providing education and assistance to physicians treating MDS patients, supporting MDS patients and their families, and initiating a forum for exchange of information regarding the current research in MDS worldwide. For more information about the myelodysplastic syndromes or to find an MDS specialist please contact the MDS Foundation on their website at www.mds-foundation.org or call 800-MDS-0839.
