I have been diagnosed with MDS. This is after chemo and radiation for triple negative breast cancer. I have the SF3B1 mutation and have not started treatment. I wanted to get a second opinion but the university hospitals my oncologist recommended don’t accept my insurance. I have a BCBS PPO policy thru the market place as I am no longer able to work full-time. I want to verify that I can monitor my condition and not have to start chemo now. Does anyone have suggestions.

Thanks,
Julie Morrison

Look forward to talking with you soon.
