Welcome to Connect, @callahan. There are several discussions in the forum with members who have MDS.
There are several subtypes of MDS so while you’re reading, some of the stories and experiences shared might not apply to you.

I’m posting a link below for you. I think this discussion would be a good place to introduce you to the MDS support group. (More can be found by typing in MDS, or Myelodyplastic syndromes in the search bar at the top of the page. Feel free to jump into any conversation!

How long ago were you diagnosed? Are you following any treatment plan for your MDS? Have you discussed your diarrhea/constipation issues with your doctor?
