Thank you so much Birgitta. That has made things much clearer for me. I have read all that before but somehow it has never MEANT anything. Now I can see that it would be very strange if I did have MDS! Maybe my own doctor's idea of "preleukaemia" and the rest of the worlds is different! So I will insist on answers and if he really still doesn't know I'll try to get the reports and see someone else. If he says it's something like that, what do you call it can't remember! then I won't bother about it , but I'll read abut that again first. I really appreciate all your help. And I'll let you know!
