I've just been diagnosed with MDS Intermediate 1. I had one transfusion because my hemoglobin was 8 and now the Dr. put me on Aranesp. Any one has any experience with that drug. It's been two weeks since the shot and I don't feel much better at all. Also, does any one now about the throbbing pain in the ear? What is that about?
Thank you for any help. I am still trying to recover from the shock of the diagnose.
