Re: Myelodysplasia,” Myeloneuropathy, and Copper Deficienc [1 Attachment]

I would also look at the Oleander Soup Group.

It may be a Better solution than Chemo by far.

Ok, Doctors on my

Email list, I have a close friend just diagnosed with myelodysplastic

syndrome

and is scheduled for cytoxin chemo IV next Monday,

please do you have any other suggestions? The following

I assuming is from the Mayo Clinic in the attached, does

anyone have any other research that might be helpful?

We describe

a patient with a suspected myelodysplastic syndrome

that

developed in association with a neurologic disorder

resembling

subacute combined degeneration but without vitamin

B12

deficiency. Ultimately, the hematologic manifestations

and

the

neurologic syndrome were linked to severe copper

deficiency.

Prompt and

complete reversal of the hematologic abnormalities

occurred

with copper replacement. Serum copper determination

should be

included in the work-up of patients with anemia and

leukopenia

of unclear etiology who have associated myeloneuropathy.

The

hematologic picture can resemble sideroblastic anemia

or

myelodysplastic syndrome. Hyperzincemia can be an

accompanying

abnormality

even without exogenous zinc ingestion.

The reason

for the copper deficiency may not be evident.
