Hi, I feel better today than I have in many weeks.
Just the usual rash with the copper but now that I'm having pre and post hydrocortisone it's not as hot or uncomfortable.
Hb is 90 (3 units of blood on Thursday and Friday) WCC 1.00 don't know the neuts or platelets. I'm happy that things are heading in the right direction.
More copper today and tomorrow and all being well I can go home.
I'm in Mater Private and besides that first issue with the nurse running the copper too fast, the care here has been wonderful.
I still have a little bone pain but its not too bad just a little background throbbing.
Looks like my GP and specialist were right, I'm very lucky to have had those seizures in hospital because if I had had them at home by myself I think I would have died. I needed to have some special drug to stop the seizures and that drug is only kept in ICU. The usual drugs had no effect. I don't know the names of the drugs because I wasn't conscious at the time. I do have a sore neck and throat but that's not much to be left with.
I'm in a much more positive frame of mind today.......it feels good to feel good.
Regards
Chirley
