Counts got back today 3k and doctor wanted to re check in house and came back 2k. So back on 60mg of Pred and re count on Monday, so no sleep for me......

My last doctor would have sent me straight to the hospital and or infusion center.... I only have a few small mouth blisters.

I almost started laughing when my regular doctor called to tell me my 3k count. He was pretty much freaking out, I told him I have an appointment at 1pm today and will see her then. He was like no call them now and see if they want you to come in sooner, I did it just to please him and I already knew they would say just come at 1pm. This was the first time he has seen them that low and I was this low for a whole month last year.

I cut the crap out of my finger yesterday and wouldn't know that my counts are down (it didn't take too much to stop the bleeding). Scraped my thumb today and no bleeding..

My husband said I had a horse shoe up my butt, since the last doctor would have just sent me straight to the hospital or infusion center, most likely admitted me. But then again I was in the 0-3k range for a whole month last year, did go to the infusion center daily for platelets.
