D'S, 10 this week. He's been unwell, catching every virus, pale with dark circles under eyes, very tired and lethargic. Stomach cramps in upper abdomen and a persistent dry cough.
He had blood tests 2 weeks ago which showed low white blood cells. 4.4 and Neutrophil of 1.4
He's having another blood test next week but I'm concerned about possible leukaemia and Dr doesn't seem to have linked the low white cells worry bone pain, cough and stomach cramps. Suggesting we check for asthma (definitely not got this) & constipation (ditto).
Is there anything else I should be asking, anything I've missed? Does anyone have a similar experience good or bad to share?
