    Sounds like a positive move despite the tests being a pain. I hope they can find out what's going on with you! Keep us updated!

    I can only agree with this and the others. I don't know how much your hematologist told you about the bone marrow test, but it is one that allows the diagnostician (whichever doctor reads the test results) to see red and white blood cells at all stages of development. It is a more precise test for determining the cause of anaemia, for example. Or how well your bone marrow is recovering from the abuses of treatment. It is painful, unfortunately, so our thoughts are with you!

    jenny i had the bone marrow test about 18 months ago.it is not pleasant but needs to be done as it is a good indicator as to what is going on or not as the case might be.good luck.
