Guest guest Posted December 7, 1999 Report Share Posted December 7, 1999 Hi. I just got AJ's blood work back. Wondering what all you know about having low white blood count, but the following were all high-red blood count, HGB, polys, folic acid and vitamin c. Any input would be appreciated. AJ's asthma is under control so her vomiting is too. The GI feels this is a pulmonary concern and not EG related. Guess only time will tell. Look forward to hearing from you.

I had mine done at the doctor's office. They were ok with the blood work but not the ekg because they only used 2 leads instead of 12 (I think).

I found out I could NOT have surgery due to anemia. I would have been so Upset if I had waited till I got to Durham and had my bloodwork and then found out how low my hemoglobin is. I HAD NO IDEA I was not a canidate for surgery until then. As a matter of fact I was getting ready to go pick up my letter from my PCP and he calls me and says " YOU can not have surgery now......you have anemia " Oxford,Ohio Preop on hold...........Failed blood test Hope this never happens to anyone that makes a lot of plans and finds out the day before surgery. > > Hi Can anyone who had their preop ekg and bloodwork tell me when they had > it > > done at the hospital prior to surgery?
