HELLO EVERYONE, MY NAME IS ADOLFO, I’VE BEEN LIVING WITH MDS FOR CLOSE TO TWO YEARS NOW. I RECIEVED A BMT IN 2004. MY LITTLE SISTER WAS MY DONOR. EVERYTHING HAS BEEN GOING GOOD, BUT RECENTLEY MY BLOOD COUNT HAS BEEN DROPPING MAINLY MY PLATLETS. THERE EXTREMLY LOW. I’M GOING TO HAVE AN ASPERATION DONE NEXT WEEK SO I’M SCARED TO FIND OUT WHATS GOING ON.

A LITTLE BACK GROUND ON MYSELF. I’M MARRIED WITH TWO BABIES. MY DAUGHTER IS 2 1/2 AND MY SON JUST TURNED 1. I’M THE SOLE PROVIDER FOR MY FAMILY SO YOU CAN SEE WHY I’M NERVOUS. I USUALLY TALK TO MY WIFE ABOUT THESE THINGS BUT I DONT WANT TO STRESS HER OUT RIGHT NOW. SO IF ANYONE WANTS TO GIVE ME A LITTLE LIFT I CAN USE IT. THANKS.

Hi Adolfo,
Understand your feeling.
Would wait till you get the results of aspiration.
Most people go through ups and downs in their counts at some time.
Have you been seeing a hematologist on a steady basis? What does he/she think is happening.
It has not been very long since your BMT. Could be there is something going on with the grafting.
