Friday CBC

Addison had her blood taken this morning at our pediatrician's office and these were her numbers:
WBC 1.9 (lowest they have been)
ANC 600 (good that her neutraphils are staying above 500)
RBC 9.3 (same as Monday in normal range)
Platelets 48 (pretty good since it has been 11 days since transfusion)

I was worried about her WBC since that is the lowest they have EVER been but the Dr said they care more about her ANC than her WBC number. I will take that as good news then. They were very happy Addy's platelets hadn't dropped below 20 meaning she will go over 2 weeks not needing a transfusion (Monday will be 2 weeks and we are getting next CBC Tuesday)! This is very exciting seeing that 10 days was the longest prior to this. The longer and longer between transfusions can only be good news!

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.
