05/06/08 - Quick Medical Update

As I stated in my last post, I opted to not receive my 8th and final chemo treatment. My blood counts have been low, but once per week instead of the usual two times. My counts have been pretty much the same over the past three weeks. My neutrophils, responsible for some of my immunity, are the only counts that have slowly gotten lower. Hopefully, they are going to turn around by my next blood check in a week.

My blood count plots are accurate as of this evening. Again, the newest values are on the right side of the chart. Although they are low, three of the four counts are slowly rising...
