T73

Clinic visit today brought us a smile, even though Terry's health hasn't really improved.  Things are going about the same, though counts are so slightly up that it's probably not worth mentioning, and if like many times before, they'll possibly be down next draw ..., but we take what we can get. 

WBC = .72(L)
RBC = 3.17(L)
HCT = 30(L)
PLT = 52(L)
ANC = 0.28(C)
We need to watch the Creatinine and Glucose levels, they are a bit higher than we'd like, but not critical.

Great news is that one of his meds that he takes three times a day (with nothing to eat two hours before or after) has been changed to twice a day, so that's five pills a day less now, making things much easier.   :)   We are now reworking things to make our medication schedule less complicated.

We start Vidaza infusion (targeting MDS) again on Thursday, daily for seven days. It sounds like another bone marrow biopsy is set up for the 28th, and we will have some busy days ahead with all the "work up" they will begin.
