I'm 100 days post IMRT chest wall radiation.  No chemo.  My lab results show low platelets and lymph #.  Has anyone else had changes in blood chemistry following radiation and how long did it take for things to return to normal?

    This is very interesting. I am 1 year post rads now and had a low platlet count . My WBC was in the normal range, but very low.I had some other odd blood chemistry things. I'll have to pull my records and repost. Not sure what it all means but I will say I suffer from terrible fatigue.

    I have had a low wbc six months out. I am taking vitamins to build back up. I have a feeling this is a common occurence.
