Caregiver
My 83 year old father has been failing since May 2025. He has always had low anemia however in the past few weeks he was diagnosed with MDS. He is losing so much weight and is very fragile. He is getting a shot every other week to boost his red blood cells but it does not seem to be working. I am looking to see if there are other options or if we just need to be more patient to see results.
