I think, really, you can assess 100x over but the only way to really assuage fears is to see an oncologist if you think you might be showing signs. They can order blood tests and other scans to see if is truly MDS or something similar. I know it can be scary and overwhelming, but spending time trying to figure it out based on things you see on the Internet can be nerve wracking. If you need anything that we can do, just ask. In the meantime just know you are not alone. Keep on keepin' on, DPM
