BMB
Hi Teo,
Good that your mother not is getting any treatment except txs and Ferriprox without a dx!
I don't know much about results from BMBs but I don't think these results give much info. Your mother has hypocellular marrow (few cells) and no blast cells (immature cells - more than 5% is a bad sign). Very good that they don't find any obvious dysplastic (mis-shaped) cells indicating MDS.
Erythropoiesis means making new red blood cells.
Granulopoiesis means making new neutrophils (the most important white blood cells).
Lymphopoiesis means making new lymphocytes (a kind of white blood cells).
Megakaryopoiesis means making the kind of cells that make platelets.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
