Thank you both. I guess I am driven by a curiousity more than fear (but driven I am :^)I am not too worried about it. I figure if it is MDS, it must be a mild form for my HGB to stay steady for so long. I was just curious if anyone started out this way. Kind of a yes or no question. I think asking questions helps me cope. It keeps me in the intellectual realm. When I stop asking questions, I am scared.
Jerry, I am on the other side of Columbus. Cleveland would be an all day trip for me. I haven’t really thought about any next steps, because, as I said, I am losing myself in the intellectual. It helps (?) that I have always had an interest in the medical field. Maybe it just makes me more obsessive. I do it with everything–I recently read a novel set in ancient Pompeii. I found myself researching Pompeii, the Roman aquaduct system…Guess that’s just how my brain works, and how I cope with the unknown.
