So, my symptoms keep getting worse at this point.

I am at a pain clinic, but it is very back pain focused.

My blood work shows extremely low platelets, neutrophils and low white blood cells.

I have been seeing a hematologist/oncologist now for over six months. He is one of the few physicians that I have seen since this roller coaster began that is empathetic and professional.

He thinks the neuropathy could be secondary, but can't find a reason for the low blood work. I was taken off Lyrica to see and my neuropathy is much worse.

I just wanted you all to know that I am SO thankful for this board.

Over and over the veterans and the newbies have really made a difference in my life.

I really appreciate your wise advice and suggestions.
