To all of my CML friends and care givers. I took a flight to Chicago Dec. 6th to see my cancer Doctor get blood work. A week later she called me to tell me that my Hemoglobin was down to 10.7 and the norm is 13.0 - 17.5. My Hematocrit was 32.1% and the norm is 38.0 - 50 %. She wants me to get a Bone Marrow test here in Florida because the airfare to Chicago would be $601.00. That's not going to happen. I'm also taking Folic acid for the last 6 months (1mg). Folate is 16.7 >=5.9. She sent my other cancer Doctor down here a fax as to what she wants. I have and appointment set for Jan. 2 and talk to him about what to do. (I'm worried). She made a note to him that I also have CRI which may be Contributory. So back in 2010 my counts on these two item were Hemoglobin 13.3 and Hematocrit was 39.0. So back in 2015 my counts on these two items were Hemoglobin 12.0 and Hematocrit was 36.1. So the counts are coming down and I think it's from the Gleevec. My white count is find at 5.8). Iron was 88 (50-212), Iron binding capacity was 281 (250 - 450). So anyone that may have some answers that may make me feel better just hop right it and I will very happy to hear from you. ALSO, I don't know now to do it but AOL is no longer going to be as of Jan 15. My new email address is (myvet...@comcast.net) and it's free for me and much better. Any feedback would be deeply appreciated. Thank you all and have a Very Happy and Safe Holiday. Greenie for South Fort Myers, FL.
