Hi,

I was diagnosed on 9/19/23. By 9/23 they started treating me with Vyxeos. I received it every other day until 9/27. It got me into remission.
I received a SCT on 12/15/23, but I recently relapsed and am on another treatment plan.
BTW I’m 65, and I live in NY. Good luck with your treatment.

I don’t have any personal experience with Vyxeos. From what I’ve read, it is a form of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy attacks cancer cells as well as healthy cells. But the healthy cells recover more quickly.
You might want to do some more research on the drug.
