Hi paulcjw,
I haven’t heard of FDFR before, and neither has ChatGPT.
OK, assuming that your husband and I have the same cytogenetics, I hope that I can reassure you. I was diagnosed in 2022. I didn’t have a stem cell transplant, and went into remission in June 2023.
Now, in May 2025, I am still in remission and getting on with life. Currently on holiday in Greece!
I won’t pretend that it is easy. For example, yesterday the fatigue from my maintenance chemo was pretty bad, so I didn’t go far from the hotel, but overall the holiday has gone well.
Your husband’s age helps with the prognosis, and so would a healthy lifestyle (eating healthy, exercise etc).
Happy to discuss further.
