Hi Why Is It That Oncologist Don't Want Patients To Have Anemia At All Costs When Testing For Multiple Myeloma?

Dee because it means your body is not getting enough oxygen and it means your red blood cell count is low and neither are good for you.

Thank you guys so much. All of your answers help. Donna Andrews you hit the nail on the head. I am having trouble with doctors who seem to do everything to prove that I don't have active Myeloma when I have all the signs, symptoms and genetic abnormalities. You guys are really awesome!!!!!!!!!

I have had anemia very often on this journey. My dr knew it made me feel tired and having low iron in your blood system means it’s not sending the right stuff to all your organs. Hemoglobin I believes caries oxygen to our organs. Our body needs it to survive. Health tree has videos on all kinds of issues. Look that one up. Hope it helps.

I've been anemic all my life. I've had several blood transfusions. Just as Donna Andrew stated, I'm not understanding your question.
