Calquence and decreased hemoglobin
Hi Everyone! I have been on Calquence for just about a month and had my first labs yesterday. Neuts were normal. Platelets were steady at 120. My absolute WBC was 106,000 from 43,000, but that was to be expected. However, my hemoglobin was 10.3 from 11.2. I know it's just a slight decrease, but

Chemo question
Hello everyone, I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer a couple days before last Christmas so I am early in my journey and feeling very scared and discouraged. Since my tumor is too large, I can’t have surgery yet. I had my first taxol/carboplatin treatment last week. I had an allergic reaction

Worried!!
Hello! I am almost 56 years old! I took a Cologuard test three years ago and it was negative. I took one a couple of weeks ago and it was positive. I have been looking at the symptoms for colon cancer and the only possibility I see would be an increase in bowel movements. I would say that I used to
