I just had a physical for work and all my blood work came back low. wbc was 2.8 plateletts 175 I think and rbc was also low. I had a low blood count after my second child by c-section, but didn't worry about it figured it was the pregnancy. They said my labs came back normal after seeing the onocologist. My first blood test in Oct was 3.7 wbc. My medcal history is mostly normal. Had chicken poxs, mono, bronchitis, sinus issues some worse then others. I am seeing a new onocologist on 19 hoping for the best. I was denied surgery for heavy periods. Kind of ironic that I can't get the surgery that could help.

" Do you have ALL? I see that you are in the ALL support group. I am a survivor of Hodgkin's Lymphoma at age 29 and I am now recovering from leukemia (ALL) and a bone marrow transplant at the age of 52. It is hard...but I am here and I am grateful for that. Nevertheless, we all have to vent, scream, whatever because when you are going through a catatrophic disease you feel very lonely, no matter how many people you have around you. I wish you well! "
