We Have Medical News Today!

It's not really special news, but we have an update on Terry's health. Though it's not special, it is good.

WBC = 3.2(L)
RBC = 3.86(L)trending upward
HCT = 36.8 (L) trending upward, it hasn't been this high in a long time.
Platelets = 53(L) they keep bouncing around lately, anywhere from 48 to 61 the last 5 weeks.
Neutrophils = 1.8 WOW! It's not low..., well it's the lowest number you can get before it is low, but it is in the normal range (normal is 1.8-7.8) so we'll take it.

Terry is getting a cold again. Just a couple days after he stopped the meds to clear up the last cold I noticed he was sniffling again and wondered how long it would be. By the end of the week he's feeling it coming on strong and we don't want to let it get worse so today he got another prescription. We are going to stop it in it's tracks!

They took extra blood today to send over to SCCA for a chimerisms test. Dr. Smith said that they just keep talking about him over there. We aren't sure when those results will be back, but we know it is over one week and it could be two, so we aren't expecting anything soon. We'll post when we hear from them.

We are grateful for the little bit of good news with the blood work ... small climb as it is, it is still a climb.

We are loving the sunshine!
Have a great day!
