Thanks

Neil,
Thanks. I completely understand about not looking at a single CBC. One of my favorite sayings when someone quotes a single lab value is "a single value doesn't make a trend". There were two CBC in between the two CBCs I quoted in my original post and the levels were trending upward. My ANC is bouncing around a little (0.8, 0.83, 0.67, 1.0). I don't have the full CBC from Tuesday - the EPO clinic just called me today and gave me a couple of the values (namely Hb) and told me to hold the Procrit. I can get the full CBC results on Friday (three days after the labs are drawn). I definitely plan to talk to my doctor and get his perspective.

Thanks again and have a Merry Christmas.
