A member asked:
Would brain tumor/cancer show something abnormal in a cbc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Unlikely: Brain tumors do not affect your CBC unless the cancer is wide spread and actually arising from an area outside of the brain. Even then it can only tell if you have a healthy bone marrow (Bones) or not
