Symptoms of MDS

The symptoms of MDS are caused by not having enough healthy blood cells in the bloodstream. They can include:

  • Feeling fatigued
  • Fever and frequent infections
  • Poor healing of minor cuts
  • Easy bleeding or bruising
  • Paleness
  • Shortness of breath

In severe MDS, infection or uncontrolled bleeding can be life-threatening.
