Well right now all I can do is hope that I’m out of here by Friday so that I can make it to my cousin’s bonfire this weekend (if not, I truly may break something b/c I’m so f$&*ing sick of this messing with my life…seriously what am I saying…I have no life currently and it’s getting old). My WBC’s haven’t gone anywhere even with the booster shots (they were at .500 on Sunday and have actually slipped a little into the .300’s right now)…we’re going to keep doing the booster shots and just wait and see (apparently there’re no other options????!!!!!????!!!!!). The doctors all assure me that “eventually” they will just come back up on their own…well yippee for them…we’re just letting them build up to bring em down again anyway whatevah…I’m scheduled for chemo on Monday the 3rd and they have to push it off if my counts aren’t there, but if it gets that far then they’ll keep me here until the counts go up (which get this could be up to or more than 2 additional weeks which gets into messing with Thanksgiving
) then potentially keep me here for the chemo right after though they may send me home and make me come back which would be GREAT b/c at least I’d get a break from this hospital room, however the doctors have all warned me that the likelihood of this same scenario I’m in now after the next round is great b/c my body has just taken so much chemo that even the boosters aren’t working right so I shouldn’t be suprised if I end up BACK in the hospital for low WBC after the next round just like with this round…so basically we’re waiting for my body to repair itself so we can break it again so it can take a longer time to repair itself…ugh the walls of this hospital room are closing in on me and I can’t even take a damn walk in the hall…which in an of itself is bad since I’ve lost about 50% of the progress I HAD made on being able to move my damn leg…it’s set me back to mid september levels of movement with the leg!!!!!!!!!!!! I could scream right now I really could.
