Man, best wishes. Hope you get positive results back, soon. We're all pulling for you.
No more big hammers Kyle, they just set up an IV, shoot a little "good juice" in it, and it's off to the land of nod!
Good luck brother, let us know how it turns out.

No.....they do this shit while you are AWAKE!!!!!!!!!
I think I'll be refusing this test........
It looks like being shot by a .22.......SLOWLY!!!!!!
Yeah, I'm sorry, I should have watched the vid first!
Don't matter tho....she was just a scrawny little chick, prolly couldn't even get your v max up off the side stand!! Just turn yer mind off to it Kyle and go get the biopsy done....you'll eat yourself alive with worry if you don't!!

So what is the issue with a high platelet count???
Danny......
Through the course of my life I have been in many situations that I would rather not discuss......
This has led me to fear no man or machine........
What I fear is NEEDLES.......
Superman has Kryptonite....... everybody has something.......I have needles.....
To be honest I am less afraid of dying than what these so called Doctors put people through........
After 20 years in fire/ems service.......and my first wife dying of cancer.....and watching what she went through..... I feel I am qualified make that decision.......
They can do other tests and make their best guess.......and we will go from there.......
EDIT:
Please note that tone does not come through in the typed word.....
This was meant to express my views and inject(no pun intended lol!!) a little humor into it with the Superman comparison
I HATE needles....
It is possibly a sign of several blood disorders and could lead to an increased stroke risk at the least......
At worst it is a sign of leukemia.....

I would ask you Dr. about your options concerning the procedure. I would bet that they will allow you to be at a minimum of sedated for the procedure. Trust me knowing is much better than the consequences. Wishing you the best!!
I appreciate all your replies......
As I just said to Dannymax in a PM.......
This is not a life or death deal.......YET anyway.....
I have high blood counts and they want to investigate further.....
Somehow I am sure they have other tests they can run before they even think about pounding a spike into my hip........
It just freaked me out when it was the first thing mentioned as I set up the appointment.....as if it was a urine sample ya know.....:damn angry:

Why would they not do a blood test first??:ummm:
They have those results already......
I am sure they will do another one......
This is apparently the next step......
I don't even want to see the one after this
uke:
I had to have a series of those test for about 6 months following my motorcycle accident in 1991. Almost lost my right lower leg (nearly severed) and the bone was the only thing keeping it on. It took a hell of an impact so they kept checking it to make sure it wasn't dying.
Good luck on your testing.

Good luck on your testing.

they are talking about doing this after 1 set of labs? WTF time to find a new doc. Seriously, there are a few things that can increase your wbc's, you need to have a CBC repeated at least once WITH A DIFFERENTIAL!!!
Also ask for a CMP, complete metabolic panel instead of a bmp, basic metabolic panel.
2 sets of blood work.......I don't know what type.......3 months apart......
Levels elevated both times:confused2:
quoted for truth. good luck man
