Blood test

I don't know if this is related to MBC. My GP did a blood and urine test to check I was clear of infection and to generally review state of health following a request from oncologist.

The blood test shows abnormalities, raised platelet levels and raised B12 levels. Are these likely to be related to the MBC and treatment? Could be some time before my GP gets back to me, knowing their usual modus operandi.

Yep, now had conversation with GP, nothing to be concerned about. But still bacteria in urine so more antibiotics!
