Should I Get My Bone Marrow Tested?

Subject: Should I get my bone marrow tested?
Date: 04/28/2007

My doctor has advised that I need to get my bone marrow tested, but I'm really scared to do it.  Those of you that have had leukemia, do these symptoms sound like something to worry about?

 I've had fever from 100-102.5 consistently for over a month, severe headaches, and ibuprofen does not help.  I feel weak/tired and getting weaker.  My WBC is 3.1 and the differential is SEGS 12%, BANDS 13%, LYMPH 46%, MONOS 13%, EOS 1% and BASOS 0%.  ABS SEG is 0.4 K/cumm.  Also my reactive lymph was high (0.5 K/cumm), not sure what that means.

I've been tested for everything else under the sun, does this sound like anyone's experience?

Thanks in advance!
