I sometimes have a wave of dizziness which makes me feel nauseous for a while afterwards. It always passes and is only occasional so I don't worry about it, esp since I also have quite low blood pressure (95/55 or lower sometimes).

Even though my average WCC drops every year (currently 1.2 and 0.4 neuts), as long as I feel well and am managing to avoid most infections, I'm content.

I want to assure you that it's possible to live a fairly normal life with lower risk MDS so try not to worry unless something serious goes wrong. Exercise is really important as is a healthy diet.
