Unfortunately, my white blood cell count and segs (segmented neutrophils) was insufficient to carry on the chemotherapy yesterday. (WBC# = 1700, SEG = 34 %, where if the seg count is less than 500 the patient is at increased risk of infection). I will be going into hospital again this Friday, and hopefully the WBC# is increased enough to do the last round of chemotherapy!
Strangely enough, even though I didn't have chemotherapy yesterday, I was feeling noxious and tired all day. I always feel nervous on the day and the day before chemo, so maybe the body was anticipating the horror of chemo every other week.
Be joyful always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God's will for you in Christ Jesus. (1 Thessalonians 5:16-18)
