Hi Lindajo,

Thanks for the response. What you said makes sense and I'm happy to hear you haven't had much need for treatment over the 20 years :-) I completely understand the wait and treat method, that is fine with me. My problem is I'm in the disregard status with the Hematologist right now. It is only my GP who wants to retest, the Hematologist doesn't want to even see me. I also just felt since my Retic is always so low, even with anemia, that I should have at least one BMB done (never had one before). I'm fine with the fact that the only treatment is wait and treat when needed, but I'd like to know what the cause of my dropping number is by having a BMB. Also if the BMB is not possible, at least regular blood work like every 3-6 months to monitor it, but at the moment I don't have a Hematologist, just my GP who is concerned. Anyways, thanks a lot for the input, I appreciate what you said and staying patient is a good point. Thanks again.
