Stem Cell Transplant Today: Reality is starting to set in
I’m sitting in the ward rn and I don’t feel brave anymore. I’m pretty young—about to turn 23 and I’m getting my conditioning chemo rn. I just keep thinking about my Dr. saying there’s a 55-60% chance of my 5 year survival. I responded pretty well to chemo, I’m not MRD- but very very low residual. I don’t think I can do this again a second time. To think it’s over just for the chance of a relapse in two years. I had no symptoms to start and I try not to think about how much worse it could have been if they did not find it in the earlier stages
If someone has had a similar prognosis I would appreciate knowing how that went
