Hello!

I'm Su in Florida. I have been diagnosed with AA. Right now, the doctor is just watching the levels. They quit dropping, finally. My white blood count was 3.7 (4-10-range)at my last visit. Hemoglobin - 9.1(12-16-range). Platelets - 23(150-200-range). Doc indicates treatment, drugs, will likely begin in a couple of months.

I don't really understand! He said my bone marrow was functioning at 1%. Obviously, I don't feel good, but, I don't know what to think! The first doctor, the one who discovered this, was adamant that I start treatment right away. However, the transplant specialist I was sent to is taking a slower approach.
I have too much I want to do and learn! My family is raised and I live by myself. I'm very happy with my arrangement! Now, this!

I'll be reading other folks' posts. I just don't really know what to do or think about this. I've not ever been ill like this before.

Thank you!
