Fellow SOCS,

Just a short update on my ongoing health issues. My blood work has been screwed up since last spring. Low RED blood cell count, Low White blood count, as well as other crap going on with my blood work.  The three indicators my Oncology, hematology doctor looked at were.
1. Blood work.
2. Loss of weight…you guys have watched me lose this weight (approximately 50 pounds)
3. I started to have saturated night sweats this past summer.

We are looking at the possibility of Lymphoma or some sort of blood disease.

Dr. Fong got me right in for a bone marrow biopsy last Monday and Candace and I have been patiently waiting results . We met with Dr. Fong yesterday at the Leonard Cancer Institute (Mission Provenience). Dr. Fong let me know that the pathologist testing has not been completed, as there is more than we expected.
He just called and he explained that the Pathologist has requested DNA testing. We are waiting for this test as of today.
Were trying not to read to much into this and taking it a day at a time.
Thank you all so much for your support…we are blessed to have our group of friends.
We will keep you posted when we hear and formulate our game plan.


Cheers,
Myles😉

Myles,

I truly believe in the power of prayer my friend. You will definitely be in our prayers and don’t look into it until you have your full diagnosis. Keep positive, stay strong and you will get through this..
