I am 69 and in good health otherwise. I think that marrow transplant is considered out of the question for my age.

I am considered at intermediate level 1.

I need to look more closely at the neutrophil counts. I am a little overwhelmed with all the blood results. I did start a spread sheet for the simple things. Also borrowed a hematology textbook from a friend, but it puts me to sleep.

Does anyone understand what hypercellularity has to do with MDS? My hematologist seemed to think this was the smoking gun.

How does one avoid all infection? On wiki they say to only eat cooked fruit and veggies. Really. I would think uncooked might be better for overall health which is important. We are not a 3rd world country.
