Show Notes
Join us as we start a brand new series, Patient-Doctor Perspectives, where we explore a diagnosis from the view of a patient and doctor. In this episode, we speak to Ashley Cámara, a Myelodysplastic Syndromes (MDS) survivor and advocate and Dr. Lucy Godley from The University of Chicago Medicine. Ashley shares her story of having two MDS diagnoses in her family – first her brother and then herself. Dr. Godley then delves deeper into inherited myeloid malignancies and how genetic links may lead to preventative treatment options.
