Fun visit

We enjoyed our visit to the doctor today. The doctor was in, and so was Anne. We also had the nurse that did all of Terry's Rituxan treatments in Wenatchee helping in ML today, so that was fun for her to be the one drawing Terry's blood today - a nice surprise. Everyone was pleasant and happy to see Terry. We also saw some neighbor's (whom I better not name, due to patient privacy) that seemed to have had a pleasant visit as well.

The counts were pretty much as we expected, except for the potassium count - it is too low, so he has to take some potassium this week.

WBC = 3.3 (L)
RBC = 2.97 (L)
Platelets = 84 (L) but "maintaining"
Neutrophils = 1.9

It won't be hard to compare to last week, since I only have one short post between them. So, scroll down a bit to see last weeks results if you wish.

We welcome warmer days ahead!

I think Terry's body just got used to low counts and prefers to stay in that range! Glad it was a pleasant visit--wish the counts were higher but that's just a joy deferred for a later celebration!
