Thanks for that Marty. I wish my onc would go over results like that! He doesn't even show them to me during our visits. He just says everything is ok. I would like everyone's input on this please. It will be interesting to see how our doctors treat our counts and etc. I always get a copy of my counts from my nurse. I'm good tonight and hope everyone is ok. Jeanie
