There is some confusion as to my blood counts.  It seems that the doctors office (the one I didn’t make it to) says that I don’t need bloodwork this week.  Then I got a call from the chemo lab that says I do.  My platelets are still low but they ARE climbing…that is a very good thing.  My red count is still a little low…not as bad as before the transfusion…but they ARE climbing.  I just happen to have an appointment with my endocrinologist (sp???) tomorrow, so they can do their own bloodwork and then do the one for my onocolgist as well.  I am in transition between phases of treatment.  I am excited about the endocrinologist because she can help me regulate my blood sugar, hormones, thyroid and just about anything else I might need.  I look at it like having a tune up…I will be running smooth once I get everything regulated….then there will be no stopping…unless I want to.
