Labs. Sigh.

Got labs back today.

Some good, some bad.

SO, let's do the good first, shall we?

BUN and creatinine.

Down.

Almost at goal.

Can i get an Amen!

Now, for the bad.

Hemoglobin fell from bad to awful.

8.0 to 6.6

Enough for a transfusion.

So, were off for a type/cross today and transfusion tomorrow at the ungodly hour of 10am.

My albumin level (the level of protein in my system) fell from 4.3 (great) to 2.7 (dangerously low).

If it gets below 2.5, I have to do hemo.

Period.

So, the plan is to eat LOTS and LOTS of protein.

Everything else is in lline, hallelujah.

Thank you for all your emails and e-cards.

They have really been source of encouragement through all this.

I'm pretty much back to bed rest until my hemoglobin gets into the ok range. I can't wear myself out anymore than my baldy is already taking care of doing.

Thank you again for your support through all this.
