aggressivenes of mds
How can one identify that mds has became aggressive or converted to AML ?my father has again became transfusion dependent after 10 months of independency and is down with severe fever. Doctors is saying that the fever probably is due to mds getting agressive. Onky urine culture shed organism growth but even after antibiotics the high grade fever is sll there and with greater intnsity. Al this startd after startng tevolade. Maybe it is due to revolade or may be t was due to happen. Can we atart decogen even when he is having low platelets and is down with fever , as dacogen is th last resort. He is presentl neding platelets every alternate day
Regards,
Neel
