Dangerously Low Levels

Well yesterday’s doctor appointment and infusion became a lot longer and more intense than anticipated.  My platelets fell to 10, white blood cell count to 0.4, and hemoglobins to 8.4.  They fell fast and hard.  So I already had to get platelets, so my new count as of last night was 52.  Now today lumbar punch with IT chemo and afterward will be getting a bag of blood.  YAY.  I haven’t had to get transfusions since May.  Lots of just waiting and sitting for this girl today.  Hopefully they will rebound but I will be getting labs this morning and on Thursday to double check.  Fun stuff right at the end.
