The blast count of 10.5 is a pretty significant indicator of bone marrow failure. I've had multiple 2nd opinions, but the mds was never the question, it was and still is what treatment(s) and when. There is a lot of other info in bmb. Maybe even having a 2nd opinion based on report and new blood test maybe be enough for another dr. to easily confirm, plus a 2nd opinion might be nice to confirm proper treatment.
