I would also like to concur about getting another opinion from Dr. Paquette in Westwood. We saw 2 hematologist/oncologists (one at the University Medical School in Portland) before seeing Dr. Paquette, and he was the most helpful and knowledgeable. At this point, you want to find someone who is an MDS Specialist.
