Hi Chirley,
Good that you liked the psychiatrist
! Hope you will continue to feel better! He is right when says that nobody knows anything about your future - some doctors think they are God.
I have stopped reading abstracts about prognosis in MDS because I have lived much longer than expected. My doctor is very optimistic and has never told me anything about my prognosis. He answers my questions and we discuss my treatment. The problem is that I have to look after my neutrophils myself because he always thinks they will start to increase while I prefer to take Zarzio (Neupogen) twice a week instead of once a week if I think they are too low.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
