A newbie - low platelets

First I like to thank Neil, Ruth & Vince for this forum.

I was diagnosed with low platelets more than a year ago. Doctor put me in watch & wait mode. I am very worried as I have lost my mother to MDS/AML many years ago. Then the doctor didn't even use the term MDS. It hit her so suddenly & swiftly, it still hurts after all these years.

Now at least I have more information & also more fear.
I am still reading & learning about the illness & this site has much info for me to catch up.

I will be going to the hospital for another blood test in 2 weeks' time.

Wishing all here better health!
