Dialysis was fine yesterday but blood wasn't. I need a blood transfusion on Thursday as my hb was very low. Probably due to bleeding on Monday. My white count was also low and my neutrophil (one type of white cells) was very l ow. So after lots of discussion the renal dr phoned my oncologist who came to see me. I don't want to end up in hospital with a very low count so we decided to use 1 injection into my tummy and repeat blood test on Thursday. The injections give me severe back pain hence the reluctance to use them. It was really good to feel like I was in control of the decisions.
Today Paul has a day off and we are going to Wisley to get alpines for our new rock garden that Paul has been building. It is looking really good and just needs plants.
Now Wisley is one place I do miss. Have a great time. Glad you were able to be so involved in the decision making.
