Hello. I have my appointment on Monday in Bristal to discuss my SCT by donor. I have AML but as they think I had CMML they have suggested SCT as chemo alone may not work long term. Reading about it and hearing about all the side effects you have all had on here and my natural feeling against invasive procedures I am very hesitating to have it but will remain open until I have heard anything. So my question is has anyone been faced with this decision with such uncertainty. I have not been told it will definitely come back with chemo alone so I may be inclined to take the risk and see. Has anyone done that and then had SCT further down the line? Thank you
