Went to Strong memorial hospital in Rochester today. They drew some blood and said some of the counts show a little improvement but their analysis of the first bone marrow showed mixed results. I have some very mutated cells but they were not defined enough for them to give an accurate diagnosis. So I will go back Feb. 16th for another marrow and bone draw along with more blood work. Meanwhile they are requesting any blood tests from the last 5 years to see if their is any history of something changing in my cell counts. I wish I was 10 years younger the way all these young lady docs like poking and prodding me all over. Hopefully they are on the right course to finding what is going on inside my bones. The chief doc seems to feel it is cancer but wants better test results from a fresh sample from their lab and pathologist before deciding what form it is. They were worried I would not want to go through another one but it ain't that bad and if that is what they need it is just a pain in the other hip. Not that big a deal.
