Thank you, Sandy, for your message. My Dad's oncologist phoned yesterday and told us that Dad definitely has MDS. I am not sure how he suddenly made that determination. Dad got a blood test yesterday and the numbers were not improved. Now, we need to figure out what to do: should we get a second opinion from a doctor that specializes in MDS, do we need to get a definitive diagnosis regarding the exact type of MDS? My feeling is that we need to do both, but my Dad's oncologist wants him to just keep taking Aranesp every three weeks. I am going to post a new thread asking for advice.
Thanks again, and my best to you and Pete.
