Bad News!!

I recently decided to have blood work done to see if I had a Hypothyroid, and I do among several other hormone imbalances.

Well a little over a year ago another doctor wanted to do bone marrow biopsy because my WBC and several other things on my CBC were low. Well before he did the biopsy he drew more blood and the levels came up a little and he felt we didn't need it at the time. Well I am the world’s worst at follow-up, I was supposed to go back 6 months ago and didn't.

Now that the new doctor has drawn blood the levels are really low and now she wants to send me to another Oncologist because it worries her. I have already had this stress of wondering is it Leukemia, because that is what they think it may be. My stomach is in knots.

Just when I decide to get healthy and fit, this has to happen. I am a stress eater.

I cannot imagine what you are going through right now. I am so sorry to hear of this. Keep to your goals, it will help battle whatever comes your way.

That really does stink! Just know that whatever the case may be, it's better to deal with it head on. Take the same attitude you're using for your weight and fitness and use it for these new concerns. You'll get through this. I'll be thinking of you, and sending as much good karma your way as I can!

As hard as it is to not worry, I think you have to let yourself be patient. Things can work out an infinite number of ways and focusing on the worst case scenario is just going to wear you out.

I heard a saying once, "Worry is paying interest on a debt that you may not owe." I think that is very true.

Good Luck!!!

My husband just went through the same thing, but when he went in the oncologist explained that one number (WBC) by itself doesn't necessarily mean anything. It has to be taken in to consideration with other numbers. (Sorry, I know I'm not explaining this right, I'm no doctor for sure.) My point is I worried myself sick over it and it turned out just fine. Go see the oncologist, but TRY not to think the worst. I know, easier said than done. Much luck to you.

Good thoughts and prayers going your way. Remember, if you can't do anything to change it, worry doesn't help. Instead of eating, go for a walk, it will make you feel better and more capable of handling the worry. Hugs!
