I started on 70mgs prednisolone coming down by 5mgs every 5 days. My platelets have gone up from 1,7,25, 75, 115. I am still in shock though about it occurring out of the blue. If platelets can come up with steroids, wouldn’t that indicate that the bone marrow can function normally and it was more likely to have occurred for another reason?

Great question, cannot wait to see the answer. Have you had any side effects with prednisolone?

That is what I am thinking. Did they have the right diagnosis if MDS or was it a really bad infection if some kind or virus.
