Dear friends, you must have noticed the steadfast march of my WBCs towards a higher respectable number. In 9 days or so they have risen from mere 700 to a healthier 1700. In these 1700 WBCs the percentage of infection-fighting WBCs is also healthy.
Seeing this ascent doctors made a few changes in my day-to-day medicines. One of the antibiotics was stopped. Also, the WBCs inducing injection was stopped on Saturday. All of us will wait for the complete blood report (hemogram) on Monday with a bated breath. How will my body react to the absence of WBCs inducing injection? Will it continue its upward march nonchalantly or would it collapse like a castle made of out playing cards? My inner voice tells me the result would be the former.
Platelets violent rise and fall is the effect of transfusion and then donor's cells eventually dying. Though my doctor feels that my own platelets have resumed their manufacturing process.
Lastly, the counts table on the right of this blog post is accompanied by another table below it called "Transfusion Dates". This table will give the dates of the last platelet and blood transfusion. Thanks to my friend, Kaushik, maintaining the tabular data has become a lot easier. Thanks Kaushik!
Sunday is going to be uneventful. No trips to the hospital and no transfusions. And I am not complaining :).
Good to hear that you becomming healhty .. keep it up and enjoy Sunday!
ReplyDeletenow I can say "wow" isn't it? would be happy to see the upward march of WBC as well as platelets and see the stagnancy in the dates of the second table and many more days without the trip to hospital.
ReplyDeleteyour inner voice is the foundation of the castle you have re-build and we are all there to support the castle to make it sure it does not fall down. So keep on building and decorating the same with the bricks of WBC,platelets, RBC and all the other necessary material.
pray god keep the path of wbc very clear for a higher march. your power will also make it more clear. blessings from your late father in law will also strengthen the power. good information received on the update. keep it up
