Vegetarian issues with MDS

Hello

I have been vegetarian since I was 18. I have read some posts that salads and fruit etc that cannot be peeled should be avoided. What other issues may I encounter or is there anyone else that is a vegetarian that had issues.

I remember when I was diagnosed the first thought when they explained the red cells was to have a big steak. I know that will not fix it lol. But I expected it, as some drs have suggested eating meat again because of my chronic aneamia before my diagnosis.

I will miss having salads and fresh juice well when the time comes, I am not giving them up now!

Honey
