Ok I am new and really need advice I think
I am on the verge of a break down, I went
for a routine blood work in nov, all my
counts were up wbc 11.2 red up hct up
also, went to my regular dr and she sent
me to a blood specialist who also did
blood work and counts were still up in
dec. So he scheduled a bone marrow test
which I kept rescheduling because of pure
fear, well I just done that on tues, the
6th and now I have to wait 2 weeks to hear
back. In the meantime I have a 23 month
old daughter a full time job and I am
paralyzed with fear that something
terrible will be wrong and I won't be here
for my baby. I just need somone's
opinion, advice whatever I don't know who
to talk to, and am trying to keep a brave
face but I don't know that I can. Thanks
for listening

Tinae,
Please dont panic, there are many things
that can effect your blood count e.g minor
illness (cold/flu)
I totally dont blame you for being scared
but doctors have to test as a
precautionary, not necessarily because
they think you have it.
Update us as when you get a chance! I hope
your tests came back diagnosing nothing!
