Another opinion??
Hi Tom,
My MDS started with low platelets and WBC, nearly normal Hgb. I did have high blasts from the start.
You are very near NYC and Dr Silverman is there, he is a noted MDS specialist. Have you considered getting a 2nd opinion? Sometimes it's good to get a BMB at a clinic noted for MDS, the pathologists see lots of MDS marrows and have a lot of experience reading them.
