Addison had her doctor apt yesterday. Going every two weeks seems to really help Charles and I (more me) with our anxiety about the CBC results and Addison didn't mind it yesterday at all. She was an angel! We thought they were good results. We feel our doctor is hesitant to confirm this is positive since it is such a small increase and we are getting a second opinion at Nemours tomorrow. She did say steady results is better than declining. Also Addison is getting over her first cold EVER so that could affect her WBC counts!
Here were her counts:
WBC 5.06 (highest ever since this roller coaster started in June)
Neutraphil 1.19 (slightly lower than 2 weeks ago but staying steady in 1000's)
HGB 10.9 (steady in 10's for months now)
Platelets 29 (23 three weeks ago, 25 two weeks ago...so maybe a small steady increase) will see in three weeks.
We don't go back to our hematologist in Tampa until the Monday after Thanksgiving and she will have the port flushed. YUCK! Then if her platelets have not increased to the 40s/50s by end of December we will repeat biopsy Jan 5th and based on those results we will plan to start treatment early January. Needless to say all we want for Christmas is Addy's bone marrow to kick it into high gear! Keep the prayers coming...God is working hard at heeling her!
