my wife(59years old - Wt. 40 kg ) is having cancer in food pipe and in lungs and she had take 11chemos. Every time when she goes for chemo her hemogram is taken. Today I found her wbc are 3000, that is below slandered .Doctor recommending her Fericip XT(ferrous ascorbate & Folic acid Tab. ) once a day and @B12 (Methylcoblamin +Adenosylcobalamine Cap. 750 mcg + 750mcg) Is it best for her?
Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. Esophageal cancer with lung spread carries bad prognosis. And anemia is very well known complication of this due to slow, chronic blood loss. So Felicia at containing iron, zinc and folic acid is needed to compensate chronic blood loss. Chemotherapy causes immunosuppression and low WBC count. So multivitamin containing b12 is important in boosting immunity. So continue Felicia at and B 12 as both are correct and needed in your case.
