Another Doctor Visit

Terry had a regularly scheduled doctor visit this week, and is one small step closer to transplant.  He is feeling better, as far as the chills & trembling, fever, and throwing up, but he does have some nausea and lack of energy and aching that doesn't seem to wanna go away.  I will agree that he is doing better and that he is fine, but he still isn't feeling well.

Blood Counts for this visit:

WBC = 4.1(L) - norm is 4.5-11.0
RBC = 3.63(L) - norm is 4.50-5.90
Platelet = 51(L) - norm is 150-400 (this count is up by about 20 so that is strangely better)
Neutrophils = 0.9(L) - norm is 1.8-7.8

Because they want to bring the CLL counts down before transplant they have decided that Terry will take the Revlimid pills again, so he has started those.  That pill causes low white counts so they gave him a Neupogen shot before leaving.  He will be aching from that now.
