He has had a packed cell transfusion and two
platelet
transfusions
, whilst awaiting a PET scan for confirmation that the disease has not changed (richters). All this developed within a span of 2 months which the doctors did not expect and hence the current drop in Hb and platelets.

Dear all, First of all, thank you very much for all the help and care I have always found on HealthUnlocked. I had my first infusion of obinituzumab and in my case, mainly due to my nephrotic syndrome kidney problem, I had a few problems. High fevers, which are common Attacks of hiccups that last

Low Platelet Count - 114,000
Note that I have done a search on this website for such information but have not come across any information on specific medications, other than possible
platelet
transfusions
(for patients with levels below 20,000).

please help with figuring out what is wrong
I posted recently that my Mom’s Hemoglobin is dropping, same as RBC and Hemocrit, while MCV and MCH are high. She was diagnosed with Macrocytic Anemia but doctors can’t figure out the cause. The hematologist did bone marrow biopsy, PET scan and over 50 blood test, all normal except for Copper and Ferritin

Hello - I'm about to return to the Mayo for the first review since my previous visit last November. As I've reported here, my last major treatment was chemo with cabazitaxel at the Oncology Center in Nicosia, Cyprus, where I live. This was successful: PSA fell from 83 at the start of chemo to about 3
