    Patti, the number for lympocytes is a % of total WBC. Thus it can be 90% and within Normal limits. As Neil correctly said an increase of WBC count over the normal limits may indicate problems
    Hope this helps

    Welcome! Key question is how you feel not only the numbers. Also the classification of MDS. But again from several conversations that I had with my father’s docs they all tell me that if he feels good that is the important thing. You “sound” great. Do not give up and live your life to the fullest. It sounds that you have many years ahead of you
    Good luck

    hi, I do have a Question on Revlimid. Obviously it looks very interesting and as a light at the end of the tunnel, but will it only work for people with -5q abnormality? Will they alos give it to others?
    Hope they do give it to all. if you know please let me know
