Understanding Genetic Mutations in MDS
Learn more about MDS at www.YouAndMDS.com
MDS is very different from person to person, so learning your mutation profile is important. Knowing what mutations you have can help you and your doctor understand how you are likely to be affected by your MDS, including how you will respond to certain treatments. Watch to learn about genetic changes in myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS), and the many different driver mutations that are associated with MDS. Some mutated genes are associated with lower-risk disease, while others may indicate greater risk. Your mutation profile can change over time so it is important to repeat the testing at different stages of your treatment. The more you know about your genetic makeup in MDS, the more you will understand the outlook and in some cases, the treatment that is most likely to be effective.

    I have been reading about blood transfusions and all the diseases that a person can potentially catch from them. I just found out (by reviewing my medical records) that I had blood transfusions some years ago while in an ICU on a ventilator because I had hospital-acquired double pneumonia and hospital-acquired septic shock and was not expected to survive. My life has been destroyed as I am now permanently disabled and suffer daily. (My underlying condition was a UTI and a kidney stone that I passed on my own.) My question is: How safe is medicine in general? It doesn't seem very safe to me, given all the unknowns (everything I read goes like this, 'the tests are not 100 percent accurate', 'we do not know a lot about what causes it', 'the treatments are experimental', 'there are no treatments'; 'try ibuprofen', etc, etc, etc, ad nauseum.) Then there are all the diseases one can potentially acquire while hospitalized (e.g., MRSA, C-diff, sepsis, pneumonia, etc., etc., etc., ad nauseum.) Personally, unless I am bleeding out, I will never again allow myself to be admitted to a hospital. The procedure performed almost killed me; however, I had never before been sick or hospitalized and I (stupidly) blindly trusted the urologist who said he 'needed to look around inside my kidney.' (I never saw him again after I went septic; he abandoned me.) So, given my personal experiences and all that is happening in the world right now, I really want to know what good medicine and big pharma do (unless, of course, you have money and influence and are, therefore, the recipient of only the very best medical care that money CAN buy.) NOTE: IF NOT FOR NURSES (who, in my experience, are the real heroes and lifesavers), many would die. I am certain I would have. It was the nurses and one ICU physician (with God's guiding hand) who saved my life. After I was able to be taken off the ventilator, I was transferred to the critical care respiratory unit. During my additional 12 days there, it was the nurses who managed my care (a hospitalist dr would pop in every few days for a minute or two.) When I was released I went to a urologist 60 miles from where I reside; he discovered a mass in my kidney which he successfully removed. (The 1st dr and hospital released me knowing there was a mass in my kidney; they just never bothered to tell me. Maybe they underestimated my intelligence. Or maybe they just did not give a damn, since single, older females (I was 55 at the time), in general, get worse quality health care. Watch John Oliver's segment titled, 'Bias in Medicine' on YT (when I saw this, it explained a lot about the way I was/am treated by doctors...at least that's how it is where I live in NYS.)

  • @mikepreston-engel8869

    My pancytopenia/neutropenia/thrombocytopenia/MDS (yes, I have had all four including more than one at the same time) was caused by exposure to poisons while serving in the military. My liver has failed, my kidneys are almost gone, I have c-ptsd, my heart has murmurs and arrhythmias in every quadrant, I have type 2 diabetes, edema, seizures, and other afflictions which have astounded every doctor/specialist I have every seen. (I estimate at least 50) Everyone diagnosed my illnesses as idiopathic and sent me on my way with their deepest condolences and apologies for being unable to offer me anything in the way of treatment, while at the same time, dismissing my claims that it had to be exposure to substances while serving in the military. I finally have convinced several of my doctors that it had to be exposure that has destroyed my life and health. Of course, the military refuses to own up to this. The main substances were; beryllium, benzene, silica(s), chromium, lithium, vanadium, with the worst likely being depleted uranium. Over 25 years ago, I was 'given' 6 months to live. I refuse chemotherapy, bone marrow transplants, and do not take blood due to my spiritual beliefs, so what has kept me alive? Prayer and belief in God and Christ. It's that simple.
