Answer about translocation

I got an answer to my question about the translocation (46,XY,t(7;18)(q11.2;q12.2)[2]/46,XY[19]) yesterday from my doc (a board certified hematologist and oncologist at the University of Florida - Gainesville). She said the translocation would make my cytogenetic category "Intermediate" on the IPSS and IPSS-R. That made my score a "1" on the IPSS and a "4" on the IPSS-R. My hemoglobin was 8.2 on Monday. She said she was going to put in a consult to the EPO clinic. I am hopeful that will give me some energy - I am very tired all the time.

Happy holidays to all!!!
