Hello all,
I had my two month blood work done. My WBC is down to 2.7, but Dr Druker says that’s ok because my neutrophils are good. So all blood work looks great. My hemoglobin was low in beginning, but has normalized. My question is my LFT, and Alt are normal, but climbing, is this normal? And glomerular was 60> it said, what does that mean? Guess I am trying to be my own Dr looking at my chart. Still no side effects as of yet, maybe a little tired...

Good stuff Lisa,
I think it's quite normal for blood work to be on the lower side in the early days until things stabalise.
I can't comment on those readouts my doc just tells me everything is perfect I couldnt even tell you what my counts are these days. All I get is all biochemistry = normal. I know in the early days my wbc was about 4 and it stablised to around 7-8 for over 2 years.
Good on the side effects. I was on high alert when starting treatment but most rear their heads by year 1. I have had some newer mild ones past that time.
All the best
Al
Thanks you Alex, Makes me feel better coming here and reading the post. I am getting use to the reading of blood work. I think next month I get a pcr/ abl for the first time after the start of Gleevics...
