No, not offensive at all, just wanted to clarify that this was about my wife. I would like to hear from actual people with experience with this.

Hi I am new to this site, but I was diagnosed with MDS, specifically RARS in 2013. I have become transfusion dependent for the past 11/2 years. I have been finding that my cognitive abilities have been slipping. I have problems with concentration, memory and at times some mild confusion. I haven't asked my doctor but I feel that it is due to my low oxygen levels when my hgb is low.

My husband is current at low risk but I have noticed his focus and understanding is slipping . I try to be understanding and patient but it is difficult at time when he gets upset
