Fred went for his weekly blood work today and his white blood cells are down to 10,700 which is still high but what we really have to watch is keeping his red blood cells and platelets up. They are dropping close to the low level. Chemotherapy attacks all blood cells (good and bad) so we have to watch very closely the red blood cells and the platelets that they do not drop too low. Mayo Clinic was pleased with the test results today.
We go to Mayo Clinic on Monday for more blood work and chemotherapy.
