A relative has an overlap myeloproliferative/myelodysplastic disorder. he has been told that if it changes into an acute transformation then it may be life-threatening. however, is there some other possible change that could also be life-threatening?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
He can get infection from not enough white cells. But his local team knows what they call they see under the microscope and how it behaves down under. Trust them.

Is it unusual (even if possible) for overlap myeloproliferative-myelodysplastic disorder to lower an elderly person's oral temperature below 36C for about 50% of his temp readings over 2 weeks? The temperatures are highly likely to be accurate.
If a person has overlap myeloproliferative-myelodysplastic disorder which is causing an elevated WBC and a very high (and increasingly high) CRP, could antibiotics bring down the CRP even if there is no infection?
Is it likely that the chronicity of overlap myeloproliferative-myelodysplastic disorder would by itself cause this rising CRP (30.5 mg/L 37.8; 54.3 ; 66.0; 110.0; 126.9; 148.5; 89.6; & 147.3)? It will be investigated bit I still desire an opinion now
85 year-old friend has for 2 weeks had his temp < 36C 19 times out of 34 readings. I don't understand this inconsistency. WBC is moderately hi & CRP very hi & going up. Could the temps be due to his overlap myeloproliferative-myelodysplastic disorder?
