Thanks Becky. Your aspirin analogy works for me. My husband took a NASID for knee inflamation and had severe bleeding. Since colon cancer runs in his family, we were in a panic that perhaps this was his problem. Fortunately not, but he's very careful these days whenever he takes any type of anti-inflamatory drug, aspirin included.
My oncologist spoke of putting me on an Epo drug while my counts were still in normal range (willy nilly), although certainly lower than they were before I began chemo. I refused and am glad I did, as my counts are almost back to previous numbers. I re-introduced myself to liverwurst, which I hadn't eaten since childhood. Not sure if it helped, but it certainly brought me back to the golden days!
