ANC and myelofibrosis?

Was in the hospital over the weekend after a scheduled surgery and my peripheral blood showed dacrocytosis (tear drop cell) and poikolicytosis and macrocytosis. My anc was 1.7 and wbc 2.8. From what I understand tear drop cells are an indicator of myeloproliferative disease. Does anyone know if this is true? My BMB only showed myelodysplasia last year and I haven't talked to my oncologist to see if he is concerned.
