Red face Macrocytic anemia 108 mcv

Hi I've been anemic for 15 years but told it was pernicious anemia. I have been taking injections of b-12 and they have increased them to every 2 weeks. I went to a specialist who diagnosed me with macrocytic anemia mcv 108 high mch and low red cells. My iron and b-12 are fine. He now is sending me to a oncologist hematologist and I asked could it be cancer? He said I didn't say that out loud ... all the other tests were negative lupus etc ... so I'm very scared ... is my next step a bone marrow biopsy? He took every blood test imaginable .... please help I'm totally exhausted,my body hurts, short of breath, dizzy, bruise very easily, headaches .... confused slow... thank you I'm very glad to find you ... oh I'm a woman 50 I'm still trying to work thank you again
