Hypocellular 5q-
My mom who has 5q- was told at her most recent bone marrow tap that she exhibits "hypocellular" marrow, much like that of someone who has AA; the doctor didn't elaborate much more, but has anyone here encountered a similar situation? Is there anything about having hypocellular marrow that would make certain treatments more/less effective?
