Hello there! I'm also a youngish one with MDS! Some Drs can make the whole process difficult unfortunately. This disease can be a very long road, particularly for diagnosis to start with & then waiting around to wait for counts to go wrong before they will treat you.

MDS can be agonizing like that & when you're young can be plain frightening. I'm so sorry about what you've been through already. Try & remain positive & hang in there. I'm around if you need to chat more. And there's lot on here to ask questions to.

For now, just try & chill. Waiting for results is always hard. But be prepared for a long road ahead. Even a long road on uncertain WAITING. Bless you!

Jules
