Bone marrow results
Hi I am wondering if anyone can help me try to figure out my bone marrow biopsy results. The hemo I saw was not helpful and did not explain the results to me. The doctors I have showed the results to told me that this is over their head and I need to see a hemo. Its going to take 12 months to get an appt with a new hemo. A geneticist I saw recently told me the results are not normal but he didn't go into details about what the abnormalities mean.
I have been unwell for almost 3 years now and the doctors can't seem to figure out what is wrong with me. I have been tested for numerous conditions but all the tests have come back normal
My bone marrow findings are: hypocellular marrow with an overall cellularity of approximately 30 percent ( I am 46 years old) with trilineage hematopoiesis;Toxic changes noted in neutrophils
bone marrow differential : absent iron storage 0/6 but sideroblasts appear increased, no ringed sideroblasts; megakaryocytes appear slightly reduced with normal morphology; increased monocytes, reduced myelocytes, increased PMN mature; erythroid precursors appear adequate with normoblastic maturation and no significant dysplagia.
There's more but I thought I would start with this and see if anyone has any insight into what this means and what questions I should be asking the doctor.
Thank you
