When she had the bone marrow biopsy 2 months ago she had almost no iron in her marrow and we just found that out today! I don't know why they didn't give her iron prior to this. She looks SO much better since taking the iron pills and she much better cognitively and can move around a little now where she couldn't at all before it. Her counts were up to 7.90 today so that is a .65 jump from thursday. I am worried about what you mentioned if she needs transfusions down the road. What should I ask her doctor? She has to go back on Monday for another injection.

Thanks for your help!
Suzanne
