He finally saw a pain management doctor. She sent him for blood work and told him he had to see the oncologist. He finally did that. The first blood work he has had done since he was in the hospital in December. His WBC was 78 and all of the wbc counts were out of range. The oncologist told him he was at high risk for a stroke and asked him if he wanted treatment or not. He said he wanted time to think. In the meantime he gave him HydroxyUrea to help get his WBC count down. He had labs repeated and he is still in the critical high level at 68.2. The lab was unable to perform a UA test because he had too much fat in the sample. The medicine has made him sick, bleeding gums, threw up blood, fatigue, back pain, headaches just to name a few symptoms. He said he would try the new medicine Scemblix and see what it does. He is only doing it because he is afraid of having a stroke. His blood sugar has been running high 300-400. He wont let me test him and said he isnt taking any meds to control it. Its an uphill battle!
