To Marilyn Hind I did only one hitch in the Air Force many years ago, but what little experience I had with doctors then suggests that your daughter will get exelent care in the military

Very informative. I would like to know about cancer due to radiation treatment for prostate cancer. That is, does cancer occur in the pelvis as a consequence of the radiation treatment for the prostate cancer?

I have had a sort of low red blood count for years, could this be normal?

Please guide me about my problem. Iam Patient of 5-6 Red cells pass out in my Urine. I have still not found any Doctor, who will provide me a better treatment. I have been pass 2 years. Kindly provide to me the treetment.

My sons doctor recently told me his red blood cell count was low. However your post only informs you of cancer therapy & anemia that would be causes to low red blood count. My son has been checked and is not anemic. He also has not had any cancer therapy or treatment at all.

my daughter continues to have low red blood cell count---8.0. She had blood that pooled around her heart and the cardio surgeon drain it but she still has low red blood cell count. It's been over a month now and she is taking mega doses of iron but no changel. She had Hodgins disease 20 years ago and they did biopsies while she was in the hospital recently but supposedly didn't find anything --also full CAT scan. I'm scared for her. She is in the Army so I worry about the quality of med attention she is getting. What can she do to get her RBC count up???
