That is bovine sharts.  The veins fill up to their max volume with "fluid" -- whether it contains the same cell count is another thing.  At diagnosis the cell count is much higher than average, and during TKI treatment and low blood cell counts the total cell counts are likely lower than average.  But the total fluid volume is always relatively unchanged.

Maybe blood should be measured by flow furlongs per fortnight.
