Have to get my blood check every two weeks I just went to the oncologist today and my white blood cells were 235’000 and it went down 115,000

Hemoglobin went up and platelets are fine thank God

Hi Littledab, great to hear from you and I find blood tests are an emotional roller coaster, I feel yukky before hand and at the appointment, then the yukkiness feeling comes back when I go for the results, then if the results are worse I still feel yukky, if the results are better I don't believe them. Yours sound good to me, enjoy the feeling, its a good way to start 2020. Please keep posting and take care.
