Let's see.
Chemo 12/16-19
Fever 12/22-24
Lovely dinner at a friends on Christmas, where I overate on rich food. Ah, Christmas! Thanks to all who sent presents, cards, emails, texts, and all.
12/26 no energy at all.
Friday 12/27 I had a blood test to see how my blood counts are doing and then coffee with Rick and May at Estero. We went to lunch before the butterfly hike. I got a call from the Drs office at lunch, my counts are very low and an on call Dr I've never met has prescribed two units of blood. When can I make it in? I head out and get typed and crossmatched for the transfusion. An hour later I'm hooked up to a pint of blood, all they have time to get me today. I do feel more energy after the transfusion.
I'm scheduled for the second pint on Monday. I talked to the nurse for a while before I left, and requested another blood count on Monday. I'm reluctant given my history with blood counts "over recovering" in the past to just take the pint of blood without getting a fresh set of counts. And I scheduled a Drs appointment before the next chemo cycle.
So I'm not in quarantine but I'm supposed to wear a mask and be very careful of exposure to other people especially sick ones. I have a little more energy but haven't tested that yet. I did get a few overdue chores done.
