HealthBoards - View Single Post - bone marrow and aspiration; high WBC low platelets

New to these boards, so please excuse any clumsiness.

7-8 year history of declining RBC count and declining platelets. recently, RBC low normal, platelets below 100K, and - sudden spike in WBC to 20K+.

Bone marrow biopsy/aspiration gives no diagnostic results: no Philadelphia chromosome (indicating CML), no excess blasts.

any ideas?
