i was sent to a hemotologist after a routine cbc test from my primary care doctor back in 2015 because my platelets were iver 600. i was placed on hydroxyurea and took it for 7 years with different dosages as my platelets went up and down. finally in 2023 i had a bone marrow aspiration and was ultimately diagnosed with MDS, apparently due to the hydroxyurea. platelets remain close to 2 million and red and white cells remain within range but i flip flop with anemia. i only recently got access to my records and read that in 2024 my dr noted a 6 year life expectancy. thats scary and why i joined this group.
