Metamyelocytes

Hi, I'm hoping someone can answer my question.

My recent blood test results show metamyelocytes are present. I looked it up and I know they are immature neutrophils and that they shouldn't be found in the peripheral blood, but, are they of any importance or are they "normal" for people with MDS or on Vidaza?

I won't see or talk to my doctor for another 2 weeks or so and I'm curious to know if they are significant.

Thanks for any replies.


Keep well.
