You have already taken Imuran so the first warning, the enzyme check, would not apply to you. If you haven’t had a bone marrow exam, perhaps one will be recommended.

Here is a link to the Mayo clinic:
http://www.mayoclinic.org/tests-procedures/bone-marrow-biopsy/basics/definition/PRC-20020282

The purpose of the bone marrow exam is to check and see if the marrow is producing the components it should be making.

good luck with your quest and your Oncologist meeting.

Consider seeing a Hematologist. Maybe the Oncologist is a Hematologist.
