Hi,
I have had abdominal issues too and it seems to only happen when my counts are dropping. I have sudden intense cramping, gas, bloating and diarrhea. I had a colonoscopy and nothing was found other that very slight diverticulosis which is pretty normal for my age. My gastroenterologist feels my recent issues may be related to the hormones I was put on to control excess bleeding during my menstrual cycle, but I'm not so sure. I had the very same symtoms before being diagnosed with MDS in June 2008 and when my counts stabilized, the symptoms disappeared.
Jill
