Hi Joeby
So sorry to hear of your latest diagnosis. When having chemo I was told that leukaemia can be a side effect - 1 in 1000 - I remember saying that is really a lot of people, and what do you do then?? Have chemo to combat the chemo related side effect?? It is great the they have all these drugs to keep us alive, but they still have a long way to go.
But I thought the danger went after a couple of years, its so long after your treatment. Good luck with your treatment,
