Kim;
I agree with Bebop - bleeding - of any sort - is not good for an MDS patient. But, if he refuses to go, and it is still SLIGHTLY bleeding - go to the Drug store and get a styptic pencil (in the shaving aisle - they used to use it a lot before eletric razors) and see if he can or will let you apply it. But - that is a last resort - always good to have one on hand anyhow - but like Bebop said - a ER visit is probably a good thing in his case.
