Question Blasts?

Hi!
Just a bit of an update, and a question;

My last CBC showed:
HgB: 13.1
Platelets: 265
WBC: 4.40

I'm really happy with how things are looking! My doctor is very happy. We're struggling a little with cyclosporin levels as I'm quite sensitive to the stuff!

However, my last CBC also showed a message under the WBC as "Blasts?"
I've had this message in the past, including "blasts with left shift"
I understand that blasts are not commonly associated with AA but could it mean that something could be changing?
If it appears on my next set of bloods then I will talk to the doctor.

I have also been feeling very fatigued despite normal haemoglobin levels which is always fun. Ironically I think I feel a bit worse than I do before I had treatment!

Regards,
Ashleigh
