Totally agree with the posts regarding volunteering. Doing something for others takes my mind off my own situation and brings a lot of joy and satisfaction. I really enjoy helping kids who are struggling with reading and maths and am doing 2 sessions a week in a local primary school. I'm an ex-teacher but you don't have to be qualified to do that sort of volunteering.

It was because of the blood thinning effect of the fish oil for easy or unexplained bruising which can be part of MDS. They stopped me immediately upon diagnosis.
