First bone marrow biopsy
I had my first bone marrow biopsy done yesterday, I will not receive results for about a week. I just had a question. While doing the biopsy, the doctor was not able to extract any blood from my bone for a sample. Is this normal? I tried to locate what it could mean, but I'm not coming up with much information. I received a strong chemo type drug last April, and it has completely confused my immune system, that's why I was referred to a hemataligist, who after extensive blood work, told me I needed the biopsy. Thanks for any help.
