BMB results
I've seen that the owner of this site helps people "read" their results... can you give any input on this one, please? Here is what his Cytogenic Analysis Report says...
"Interpretation" An abnormal male karyotype with 3 abnormal clones observed. Four cells showed -5, an unbalanced whole arm translocation between 2p and 7p, and a rearrangement/deletion of 7q. Seven cells had the same -5 and the der(2;7); plus a more complex rearranged chromosome 7 with a t(2;7) translocation and a rearrangement/deletion of 7q. Four cells revealed -5, a reciprocal t(2;7) translocation, and a marker chromosome. Seven cells had a normal male karyotype. The findings of -5 and 7q- are consistent with the clinical impression of a myelodysplastic syndrome and indicate a poor prognosis."
His last blood results are: wbc 5.9; RBC 5.20; HGB 12.6; Hematocrit 40.5; MCV 78; RDW,RBC 19.8; Platelet 44;
He is rated (?) at intermediate 1.
We are aware that it isn't looking so good for us right now. But, it could be worse, right? He has stayed positive and we have faith in God. Ultimately, He is in control.
