Myeloma

Hi curious,
You know if you suspect RA we would like to know you hemoglobin - if you don't have low hemoglobin (anemia) I don't think you can have RA.

Cellularity: slightly hypocellular 40percent. That can be normal - the cellularity decreases with age and we don't know your age.

Erthoroid Elements. Erythroid elements means red blood cells from very young to mature cells.

Mild stress dyserythropoesis means that the manufacturing of the red blood cells is a little disturbed due to that the bone marrow has to work a little harder than normal in order to increase the red blood cells

What is dyserythropoiesis in the bone marrow? Some of the red blood cells are misshaped - very few in your case.

How does it show in the bone marrow and not the blood? As far as I understand the misshaped blood cells never leave the bone marrow or are caught by the spleen very soon so we don't find them in blood.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
