I have Thrombocytopenia as my usually 333 platelets count before cancer has now stuck at 130 after 2 years. I was worried, as my white cells have never gone back up either. My blood tests that were once a month or longer after active treatment last June, had my white cells staying low. 278 the last count. I finally asked to see a hematologist.
He reviewed my charts and my history. I was given a bone marrow biopsy that may give the whys on my blood. My bloods results coupled with a gene noted in my genetics test that had no relevance, are two items leading to leukemia. The good thing is i do not have it. The sad is I am now in the donor registry. I will add I also carry the Brca2 mutation as do 2 of 4 of my siblings. today I go in for my 2nd blood panel. To be done every 4 months. I have a televisit with the doctor tomorrow to cover the results.
