Hi, I asked my doctor that if I didn't get full blown AML, what would kill me. He said in my case it would almost certainly have been an overwhelming infection because my white cells were really bad.

I used to have treatment with another man and he had a bad platelet problem and he ended up dying from a massive brain bleed.

I think it depends on the cell line most affected and a dollop of luck (?) thrown in.

Regards

Chirley
