decreased WBC

I have a history of Stage ! breast cancer treated with lumpectomy and radiation completed 1 1/2 yrs ago. (No chemo) Repeat mammograms and breast MRI have been negative. I am taking Arimidex. My WBC 6mo ago was 3.6, now it is 3.2. Neut. 1.5, lym% 42. My oncology Dr felt a few lymph nodes in my neck. I have not been sick and my folic acid and B12 are fine. I have had no unusual symptoms except bone and joint pain that I attributed to the Arimidex. Dr has ordered a bone marrow biopsy. What are your thoughts

Re: decreased WBC

My thoughts and prayers are with you.

It looks as though you've done everything right and stayed focused on your health and although this must worry you to no end, true knowledge will only come when the test results come back.
