Send us your CBC num: It is easier to guide you if you send us your CBC report along with Hemoglobin(Hb) levels of the recent past. Only time will define this problem better. If Hb does not decrease further in 3 to 6 months, you may not have MDS. But a lot depends of the actual Hb values over 6 to 12 months period of time. Have you had cytogenetic testing of your bone marrow?
