So sorry to hear about your wife.
All I can add is that I have a dialysis patient who also happens to have "Myelofibrosis" (I personally think it's MDS with few balsts present) and he's on hydroxyurea 500mg 3xday and it had no impact on his platelet count but did bring his wbc count down from 75,000 to 32,000 where he is now.
Hope the road gets easier for you and your wife.
