    HI,
    I found a site called ehealthme.com
    There is a lot of info regarding this connection.
    There are a lot of reports of people having psoriasis, but whether its due to mds or medicine is still being investigated. There are other conditions such as itp,multiple myeloma, rheumatoid arth.,high bp,non hodgkins lymph.
    So, it probably isn’t a diagnosing factor, but could be a symptom.
    I hope this helps.

    Hi
    I sympathize, I have been on a roller coaster of blood abnormalities, had a spenectomy for massive spleen , and the hematologist won’t do a bone marrow biopsy because he says I’m too young to have these problems.
    Well, he has me on hydroxyurea 2x day, and says he doesn’t know for sure which of the mpns I have. But he claims its the same treatment nonetheless.
    I’m 41. I spend a lot of time trying to find out about stuff and no dr wants to hear it.
