I'm sorry your white could is dropping. Are your other counts holding up OK?

In answer to your question, it's my opinion that you should find a hematologist with MDS experience, make an appointment, and let them advise you about biopsies or other tests.

You could phone the AAMDSIF for help in locating experts in your area. For example, if Boston isn't too far away, you can find experts at Massachusetts General Hospital or Dana Farber Cancer Institute. You could also ask your previous hematologist for a referral.
