The photo above shows the work that Dr. Pait did on my neck. They tell me it will not set off metal detectors and it'll be okay to have an MRI with it.
My white count went from .12 yesterday to .24 today. It looks like it's on the increase now and I hope the platelets will increase too but they tell me that's the last thing to recover. The doctor said today it will probably take a week or two for the platelets to recover. I meant to post yesterday that I got a bag of platelets yesterday and a unit of blood the day before.
A big happy birthday to our good friend, Kathy Dean, who regularly reads this blog and often leaves comments.
I guess that will be all for today. I hope you're having a real nice day.

  2. Jerry, So good to hear those counts are coming UP. Hope that you and Reta will soon be back UP in Tennessee. Looks like some fancy work on your neck, so glad you had that surgery in LR. Praying for both of you every day. Hugs, Darlene
