That and no hair again. Stupid TBI (total body irradiation)
As if those are not worrying me enough, I had another restless night. Maybe the house is too warm, especially if you factor in hot flashes. I will try 2 degrees lower tonight. Wish me luck.
Here is my "work place" where I spend 6+ hours each day.
Oh. I forgot to tell on myself yesterday. I get premedications for magnesium. It consists of 2 Tylenol and a Benadryl injection. The Benadryl makes me sleep. At nearly the end of my time I still hadn't been seen by the mid level or doctor. My nurse, Selena called and checked. I actually was seen by both. I have absolutely no recollection of either. Oh dear, what did I say in my foggy state??
Today's numbers: plateletes 106 (normal is 150-450), white blood cells holding at 1.2 (normal 4.8), red at 3.65 (normal 4.2), and ANC dropped to .39 (normal 1.7).
Since the plateletes are going strong, we are sure the engraftment is doing well. The white blood cells are just slow. We are not worried.
I am starting levoquin for extra antibiotic help. And I must stay from those sick, or those who are around someone sick. Sorry.
Dinner was provided by our favorite bachelor chef / neighbor. Thank you so much!!
