hello,
Iron overload causes damage in heart and liver especially in MDS low grade where people can live a long time with the desease... For the intermediate and high grade mds, iron overload is not always a problem because they someone don't live enough to experiment "iron deseases".... Iron chelation is not a simple treatment and can have side effects... but 't is necessary in some case.... perhaps not in your personnaly case. sorry for my bad english.
have a nice day and take care
