Blood Test - June 16, 2011

I went for my weekly blood test yesterday and everything is pretty good, according to the nurse.  My white blood cells are the lowest they have ever been (9,000), which is in the normal range.  My red blood cells are holding their own and improving just a little bit, but they are about the highest they have ever been.  Most likely because I just had Chemo last week.  I will have my next bone marrow biopsy on Tuesday (UGH) and I am supposed to have my next blood test the last week of June, but I begged for a week off because I will not be in Washington and the nurse was fine with that.  She and I will have a phone conversation that week about the biopsy results and that is all I have to do the week after next.  I will start my 5th round of Chemo on July 5th.  That's about it!

Love to all!

  1. Hang in there. Thinking about you and can't wait to see you this weekend. Piper is so excited to show you her walking skills and point out where her belly button is.

    Much love,

  2. Hope this round is off to a good and quick start. Be sure to take full advantage of nurse Sam!
