White and Red Blood cell count being low and also Platelets. Mine has been low since I was diagnosed. I remember getting transfusions everytime before chemo to boost my levels. Potassium and iron as well. Talk to your Dr and see what his response is. Mine said, we're keeping a close eye on the low levels. 5 years later, still really low but he says that's my range and I feel ok. Like everyone, fatigued and living with the aftermath of the chemo.

Yes. Please share vitamins you take. We’re they recommended by naturopath. My oncologist does not recommend extra vitamins. Docs say there is no benefit as chemo does not let absorption. I don’t know what is right..

Hi Maryjo, yes, I've had two iron infusions. Ferritin now is high but iron is low and still anemic.
