@leslie2121 I personally wouldn't look at the result of one set of labs as a concern. Look at the trend. You mentioned you will go back in 6 months. If there is any reason you don't feel comfortable with that, ask to be seen at three months.

And, as Patty @pmm mentioned, stick with your hematologist/oncologist, please. They are better educated and better equipped to address concerns that may arise, and "catch" a change.

Good to hear that fatigue, dizziness, depression seems to be lifting for you. There can be many small reasons for these symptoms, that come together and can create a larger presence. What can you think of that has helped you get over these hurdles? Diet change? More/different exercises? Mindful work to address the issues? Just curious, and it might help others!

Ginger:
I wasn’t wanting more frequent appointments and was actually thrilled with the positive direction the labs are taking.
And I do plan to keep seeing the specialist- though he said he could direct a pcp in what exactly to look for, but I don’t have a super great pcp so will keep seeing the MM doc.

Anyway- I am baffled why things got better! I have had a pretty healthy diet, and exercise regularly with long walks up hills, gardening & housework. I’ve added some supplements?
Maybe stress related?
