Infections

Hi Chirley,
Too bad that a patient with a severe disease as you have can't be isolated during treatment! To cure your infections will cost a lot. As we both know you get more infections when you get steroids.

I am a little obsessive compulsive too concerning infections and I think this is important for many patients with MDS. When I come to the ER with fever I am treated like a heart patient and all tests, X-ray and so on are taken at once. Then I am moved to a ward and isolated.

Hope you can fight the infections!
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
