A member asked:
If my mom's blood count comes back normal does that mean she doesn't have cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: I'm not sure whether your mom has cancer, or whether you are worried she might have cancer. A normal blood count tells me she doesn't have leukemia. Other than that, a normal blood count is a sign of good health! but it doesn't rule out the possibility that she might have cancer.
