Not enough info: Discussing the CBC of someone on chemotherapy without knowing -- 1) chemo type, duration, dose, most recent and 2) type of cancer -- is not helpful. Trying to dig for information online for this specific, patient specific information is not helpful. Talk with his hematologist/oncologist.
