Day 27 since the start of my chemo for RBC Leukemia, finally seeing some counts:
0.5 for WBC's (they were 0.3 for 9 days straight then 0.4 for 2 days)...
27 for PLT's (25, and 19 two days before that)...
7.2 for HGB (7.3, and 7.5 two days before that)...
Finally seeing some upward momentum, chemo was tougher on my counts than on me physically... RBC destruction has finally slowed to a trickle, and should turn the corner soon... WBC's and PLT's are rising on their own!!!
Once counts normalize, I should have another BMB, to determine whether or not I will have 2nd round of chemo or go straight to transplant...
Actually feeling pretty good considering my low HGB... I guess I'm getting used to lowish HGB...
Will hopefully make it home from the hospital for a few days either way, will be nice to be home after a month in a hospital bed...
All the Best to everyone, and may God Bless us ALL!!!
