Acouple of days of worry
On Tuseday Morning Hema got up as usual and had her morning cup.Then she could not get up from the Chair and she fell down.I rang up the Onc and he asled me to give her ashot of NEUKINE. I got hold of the local nurse and gave her the injection.By 2 in the afternoon she stopped responding when called and I rushed her to the Hospital in an Ambulance.A series of Blood Tests and Brain CT were done.The first good news was that the Brain CT showed a normal study.Then came the blood test her blood count was down to 700.She was on drips (iv) of sodium and magnesium sulphate and antibiotics.By wednesday she was nearly back to normal but there was diorreah.She had more shots of NEUKINE AND THE BLOOD TEST ON tHURSDAY MORNING SHOWED that the blood count has gone up to 20900.
She was discharged yesterday and she is practically back to normal but very weak.The Onc has ordered a blood test for the 22nd and given an appointment for the 23rd when he will decide about going ahed with the Chemo on the 30th.I am hoping for the best
