Andy went to see his oncologist today for some additional bloodwork and his white blood cell count was a wee bit low. His doc didn't seem too concerned but does want to see him again in two weeks.
In reviewing all of his previous records on his blood draws, we noticed that the counts went below the normal range after RPLND surgery...which would only be normal since they've removed a number of lymph nodes (which are collections of white blood cells) right? Does anyone know if the WBC count ever normalizes over time...or should we always expect that it will be below the range from this point forward?
