Low WBC, Low Platelets, Low RBC, Large cells - is it always Leukemia?
I recently went for routine bloodwork after 5-years and my CBC showed that my WBC is 1.5, RBC is 3.84, Platelet count is 74, Hemoglobin is 13.9 and the Neutrophils are at .7
I had a bone marrow test done yesterday 07/31.
Do the above numbers realistically seem like Lukemia?

@asarnesejr Initially, the diagnosis of MDS can take a bit to get used to. I think in your case, the 2 different diagnosis are causing you more anxiety. I am not a Dr, but the DdX41 mutation does not seem like it could be related to a B12 issue. Unless God has immediate plans to take you, you should be around for the 5-10 yrs the first Oncologist predicted. I ran your initial CBC results through the IPSS-M calculator and attached the results. Christ can bring you peace and hope! Seek him.

2 Reactionsthank you so much, however, my neutrophil count is .7 not 7
Yup! The scale there is different than your CBC.
Any thoughts on this scenario? last week after 11 weekly b12 injections, my wbc was 1.7, neutrophils .8 and platelets 74. my b12 level 4 days after injection was 424.
one week later (week 12) my wbc was 2.0, neutrophils 1.0 and platelets 96. my b12 level 4 days after injection was 561.
my question is both cbc's were taken 4 days after a b12 injection. week 12's b12 seems to be holding better than week 11, possibly indicating that i'm finally not depleted. could those modest increases in blood levels be the beginning of a turnaround to a severe b12 depletion or just a random fluctuation?
