Hi,
Thanks for asking.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.
1. Reduced blood cells are due to increased destruction during chemotherapy.
2. Improvement in nutrition like vit B12, iron and folic acid along with nutritional diet should help.
3. You can include eggs, fish, red meat, pulses, yoghurt etc to improve overall counts.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
