hypocellular mds
Hi, I am a female 74yrs. and was diagnosed 2 years ago with Hypocellular mds. My platelates and Hemoglobin was extremely low, and had to have a transfusion. Dr. put me on 300 mg. of cyclosporin. Both my platelets and hemolobin levels went up to a normal range. After a few months on 300 mgs.,Dr. lowered medication to 200 mgs. After a few months and normal blood counts, we again lowered medication to 100 mgs., and up until now counts remained in normal range. We are contemplating stopping medication, which makes me nervous. Has anyone on record been able to stop medications and counts remain normal??? If anyone has an info on this I would appreciate your input. Thank you, Mrs. C. Slutz
