A member asked:

What does high blast cells mean that show up in a regular cbc? i have leukemia n can't go into remission, so i feel like my doctor has given up on me.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Consult: I'm sorry about your illness. Some types of leukemia are often curable; others are not. The fact that you have written tells me that this is time for a review by a second specialist in leukemia -- not because i suspect error, but because communication may have broken down. You have an absolute right both to clear answers (outlook, options) and to feel cared-for regardless of your illness's course.
