A member asked:
If the mass i have between my ribs is cancerous would it make anything on a cbc abnormal and at about what stage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Prob not: Your CBC will prob remain in the normal range, even if that mass is cancerous. The CBC components would only change from indirect causes such as anemia if there is blood loss, etc.
