Dr McNally shares some insights into her personal experience with treatment and how this impacted her life. Although Dr McNally was initially told that she was not fit enough for a transplant, she used exercise to build up her fitness so that she could undergo treatment, and emphasizes the importance of encouraging other patients to do the same in order to improve outcomes. This interview took place at the 62nd Annual Scientific Meeting of the British Society for Haematology (BSH) 2022, in Manchester, UK.
