Similar problem

I also started out with macrocytosis. I also had purpura on my legs/calves, especially when I was on my feet all day. I have slowly began to have other abnormalities in my blood cells, but nothing too bad (anicytosis, macrocytes both at 3+ and teardrop cells). I'm suppose to get a BMB. I'm also losing a little weight, but not anything bad. Let me know how it goes for you. When I was a kid they thought I had Scholein-Henoch purpura. I was treated with prednisone at the time. Now, they don't know what I have, but pre-leukemia is what they are going to check for. So, I'm reading about marrow problems for support or ideas.
