Well my infection is gone (hopefully......I didn't get fever or outward signs with my last one except a horrible wound discharge) but I'm still on oral antibiotics and the cruise might still happen.
I received a copy of my discharge summary and I was given a copy of my blood results as well and I got a little jolt. Despite having had my usual copper treatments less than two weeks earlier...all three cell lines were down. This has not happened since I've been having copper replacement. If I combine these results with the two recent infections I have to come to the conclusion that something new is happening in my bone marrow and it's not good. I haven't had a BMB for 4 years.
I think it's time to talk to my physician (who never orders blood tests) about the significance of my increasing bone marrow failure despite treatment. I've been given the facts very frankly from my neurologist, now I want some answers from my physician.
