strokes
Lillian,
My husband has mds since July, 2003. All his counts are usually very low; he is transfusion dependent for prbc's and platelets. When his b/p is elevated, his frequent nosebleeds are more profuse. I monitor his b/p several times a day with a wrist sphygmomanometer to make certain he is getting enough medication to keep his hypertention under control.
If your husband has hypertention, you might consider doing the same, (possibly) to help prevent another stroke...of course, discuss this with his doctors to get their approval and so that they can be involved. All the best, bety
