On Friday his platelets were 154, so he got 2 mcg per kilo of Nplate to be safe. He went in Monday for a cbc (required 24 prior to any procedure) and he was at 156. The dentist said 'its a little low' to which Tim replied, "My hematologist said I could have brain surgery at 50k." So he got the root canal with nitris oxide to get him through the needles. Its been six months since he's needed this root canal and finally is healthy enough to get it.
