Yesterday was a bad day for me.
1. I broke a glass in the dishwasher
2. I took the wrong way home from the doctor (couldn't remember where I was!)
3. Tried to call my work, got the wrong number 3 times! Had to actually look it up.
4. Tried calling my best friend who I talk to everyday and couldn't remember her number?
5. Was shaky and trembling all day.
6. Went to the afternoon appointment and in the middle of telling the nurse a story, I had to ask her what I was talking about.
7. Couldn't remember how to use the scanner for the computer. Had to search for help.
8. Took a 4 hour nap!
However, today I feel normal again! Jenny & Anna are coming sometime today to scrapbook. Looks like I better get all the Easter stuff off my table and packed away.
Yes, Joe...my temp is normal today! I knew you would be calling! LOL LOL
The visit to the doctor yesterday concluded that I will receive my next chemo treatment April 14th and I WILL get the neupagen everyday for 4 or 5 days. (that is the white cell builder) Doctor decided I could wait until after the Cancer Benefit for us, so there wouldn't be a chance of me being in the hospital for it.
My white cell count is 5.3 and normal is between 4 and 11. So, I am still at the low end which may be why I am so tired? I was at 8.0 last week. Hmmmm? Why does it still go down?
Well, I best get going to do some laundry etc. Yippee!
Every day is a gift and as long as I can open my eyes, I will focus on the new day, and all the happy memories that I have built up during my life!
Hugs, Janet
