January - 2011 - Another Visit

Another blood test and back see the doctor. This time the numbers are in decline. Red blood cell (RBC) counts and hemoglobin continue to decline. I put all my blood tests since 2003 in a spreadsheet so all values can be seen side by side. This showed that my red blood cell count had been declining since 2007/2009. The spreadsheet also showed my white blood cell and platelet counts fell between 2007 and 2009 but had stabilized. After viewing the spreadsheet my doctor referred me to a hematologist.
