Recent update

The weekly Blood Tests showed a slight improvement over the previous week. 

The White Blood Cells came in at 1.1    Normal is 4-10          
The Absolute Neutrophils were .6          Normal is 1.5 - 6.5
The Red Blood Cells were 2.9                Normal is 4- 6
The Hemoglobin was  9.7                       Normal 12-18         
Platelets were 56                                     Normal 150 - 450    


The WBCs and Abs Neutrophils will never make it back into the normal range, but if the numbers could be doubled, it would provide a little bit of an Immune System.  

So here's hoping and praying that the Procrit (Boosts RBCs & Hemoglobin) and the Neupogen (Boosts WBCs and Abs Neutrophils) weekly injections will really start kicking in and help the Bone Marrow generate new Blood Cells.
