Looks like the 'other side' of the white cells are now showing an increase! This is what the Dr. was hoping to see..Wanted both sides of the whites to show a rise in count! Today Becky is at 2100, yes an increase from yesterday's count. We do hope there will not be a count fluctuation as a nurse had mentioned could possibly happen..And if the 'rollercoaster' levels do materialize, let it be ever so slight. Becky is tired from the prednisone keeping her wired! Keeps her awake at night, but she did rest well for a period today...OH, and she is also taking a diuretic to rid her body of some unwanted fluid, and it doesn't take much to imagine how the fluid is purged..she gets up and down from the bed multiple times.
BUT she is so delighted to hear about the white count!...it doesn't necessarily make the other unpleasantries any less unpleasant, but it can sure make these medicinal side effects a tad less lingering when she thinks about the good that is happening. Her focus and resolve are awesome..
Stay tuned for what we hope and pray will be an increase in the good news department!
Celebrate life! Much Love..
Bill & Becky
