New Blood Work Numbers (Initial Results)

Categories:

Just got the blood-work results from Friday

I've been on Sprycel for a total of 14 days so far:

WBC went down from 19.8 to 16.6

RCDW went up from 14.6 to 15.6

Platelet Count dropped from 142 to 119 ( have to watch this very closely)!

Neutrophils Absolute- down from 15444 to13413.

Monocytes Absolute- down big and now in range! From 1921 to 681.

More blood work in 2 weeks- staying on 100 mg for now.

 

All the best to all!

Chuck.

 

You're doing fine. Stay on top of your blood counts and test every week until you stabilize.

Sprycel is well known for myelo-suppression. Neutrophils and platelets are the main cell counts to watch.
