My most recent MDS specialist follows the theory that 'booster' shots may also 'latch' onto the blasts, encouraging them to grow as well as the 'good' cells.

However, I received these shots from previous hematologist.

Anyone else hear of this theory, been taken off the growth shots? Blasts at last BM in Nov. 2008 jumped from remission to 9%.
