Good for you...We need to stand up to this awful disease and fight You too...

Mary 10 I am also 18 months from dx with AML. I guess we beat the odds so far. I am still doing chemo every 5 weeks with decitabine iv for three days and venetaclax 200 mg for seven days. I have been hospitalized three times in that period for pneumonia, RSV and heart problems. My breathing has become an issue with shortness of breath. I am hoping it is from a heart med and not the leukemia or just low numbers for labs? It is scary Mary to hear 18 months and be there now! How about you? But a Sean says we keep punchin and pray.

Hi Mary, is your chemo pill venetaclax? Keep punchin as Sean says!

I take my 1 chemo pill and thyroid pill and a vitamin D3 every day

If you think your immune system is impacted you should be sure that you are taking enough vitamins and supplements to increase your immune system. I take zinc which seems to effect illness since I have been healthy for the past two years. Taking A, B, C, & D helps many different systems in the body.
