AML is a gift that just keeps on giving, isn’t it? 🥴 The blood transfusions can really give you a boost when counts are so low, but my goodness, 6.6 is very low…hopefully your doctor doesn’t let it get to that point again before you get a recharge! I’m so sorry your back is still being a problem child though. That’s the last thing you need on top of feeling like crud. No wonder you’re experiencing depression.
Not sure what to say about the bone marrow biopsy. It is a very important tool for assessing the effectiveness of the treatments but I can sure understand your hesitation with your back issues. Do you have the option of having mild sedation?
