My week started off as usual...blood work on Monday, chemo Tuesday and just to add some excitement a CT on Wednesday. I don't have the results and I don't have an appointment with the doctor for another week and a half. Hmmm! I wonder if I can really wait that long. Probably not but at the moment I am doing okay.
Maria, my favorite chemo nurse said my counts were really low this week. No surprise for me...I am not a "high flyer" when it comes to white counts. I actually inquired about continuing with the neupogen last week but no one ever returned my calls. Hmm! Guess I should have pursued that a bit more aggressively. Why does it always seem that I am the only one concerned?? We continued with chemo none-the-less so I guess it didn't really matter...the low white counts. Typical for me is 2. Not great but I guess it could be worse.
So I am on for the 4 on, 1 week off. Three more to go! See this having something to look forward to will be a good thing. If my CT comes back looking "identical" to previous scans I will definitely be arguing for more time off. At this point I am willing to back off and see what these stupid things are gonna do. Too much time wasted on these things. I've got a life to live!!
I'll keep ya posted on my results. Hopefully I will just go do my own investigation and pick up my report so I don't have to wait until the 12 th. It feels like I'm getting sick so I will try to hibernate since I don't really have an immune system to speak of. I have done remarkably well for having such low white counts....if I do say so myself!
