Virus BK

Mi pareja lleva 50 días post transplante alogénico de médula por LMA, y después de todo este proceso no la he visto sufrir tanto como con el virus BK. Está bebiendo mucha agua, con paracetamol y enantyum cada 4h, con calor local y, aun así, el dolor es insoportable. Nos dicen que se le pasará, pero lleva 3 semanas que no puede ni dormir 1h del tirón. Está desesperada y no vemos el fin. Me gustaría saber si alguien más que haya sufrido este virus nos puede dar algún consejo o contar su experiencia.

Gracias a todos

Acute Myeloid Leukemia at 74

Laid it all out on me, my dad 74 was diagnosed with AML last week, He is in good general health however. What are the prognostics?

He started to be out of breath a few weeks ago and underwent blood test and b12 injection which had no effect, a bone marroe biopsy confirmed the diagnosis.

Type is still under analysis, will update when i get it. He got blood transfusion friday may 8, and excepted his weird yellow tint he seems to feel good.

He will start the 7+3 chemo regimen in 8-9 days, which i find strange, why not right now?

I feel its pretty much a year or so of nightmare with odds stacked against him. What you all honestly think?

I will document along the way,
