Wohoo - Last Chemo Treatment

Friday, January 23rd was my last chemo session. I am now going to be receiving infusions of herceptin every 3 weeks, but only need to see the doctor once every 3rd session.

My blood numbers for any who is interested are:

LKC (white) Jan. 23 -6.7 Dec. 30 - 6.6 Dec 5 - 6.8 Nov 13 - 4.8 Oct. 23 -5.7 October 2-6.0 Sept 11-5.5

ERC (red) Jan. 23 -4.13 Dec. 30 -4.09 Dec 5 -4.04 Nov 13 - 3.92 Oct. 23-4.44 October 2-4.51 Sept 11-4.60

HB (hemoglobin) Jan. 23 -113 Dec. 30 - 113 Dec 5 - 113 Nov 13 - 110 Oct. 23-123 October 2-123 Sept 11-128

PLT (platelets)Jan. 23 -300 Dec. 30 - 292 Dec 5 - 333 Nov 13 -326 Oct. 23-320 October 2-259 Sept 11-272

Neut# Jan. 23 -5.0 Dec. 30 -5.0 Dec 5 - x Nov 13 -x Oct. 23-3.9 October 2-4.4 Sept 11-3.6


Imagine my surprise when the door at chemo opened and Nurse Crackett stood there, calling my name. She was pleasant and very informative. I was amazed - of course, she did not get the chance to fill me fun of holes as my port had been accessed the day before. Anyway, she was just covering another nurse's break, and I did not see a lot of her.

Tomorrow, the 27th (Tuesday)is my radiation planning session.
