What can I expect?

This is my first time posting to any site for any type of support. I was diagnosed with MDS 1 year ago this week. My red blood count, white blood count, platelets, and hemoglobin counts are all low. The last test results showed a hemoglobin count of 7.6.

I have refused blood transfusion because, to me, it is the beginning of the end. I am not ready to face that at this time. I continue to work and besides feeling tired all the time, I keep on.

I am just now beginning to look around at what is available for me. I receive an aranesp shot every three weeks. The platelet counts are in the low 60's.
