Hi Amber,

This topic interests me, too, because my counts only began to improve when my cyclosporine dosage was reduced. In October my MD and NP took another look at a blood smear, and determined (somehow) that the CSA was a problem. I think that getting off prednisone also helped my counts recover. My MDS journey since April is a more lengthy and complicated story, and I have posted a longer version with more details in a different thread (TASHMAC's hemolysis) today.

Be well!

Marmab
