Platelets Due Today

After deftly managing the body for a month platelets have made a humble request to be replenished.  This morning I found a couple of clots in my inner cheek.  Please don't worry - these clots aren't as big as the ones I have seen in past.  Since there is half a unit of platelets available today in the blood bank the doctor thought we might as well make use of it.  Who knows, after this transfusion platelets will get breathing time to surge to a higher level :).

We don't intend doing a hemogram today so we will come to know the counts only on Monday.

Update: We did get the blood report done eventually before the transfusion and the results are there on the right.  Platelets drop wasn't worse than previous instances.  WBC have come back to their "normal level" :).

  1. Dear Kartikbhai,

    Bro. Ronnie Dsouza was enquiring about you this morning. You can speak to him if you want, at +91 900 481 0617. I'm sure he will start praying in-depth again if you request him.

    Love
