Well........went to Center to see my doctor for quarterly visit and all went well except in the Lab. When I came out, my mom told me to sit down and put my head down.....so, I must have been white as a sheet. First time in a very long time that it has bothered me. Sort of my fault as I gave her my right arm not thinking about how sore the muscles were from doing some spot cleaning of my carpet a few days earlier. As soon as she stuck in the needle, it hurt and burned the whole time & my blood was a little slow about flowing (four tubes worth this time). But this was not the whole problem, she sat me next to a man who was apparently having problems and there were lots of people working on him........had already stuck him several times.....then wrapped him up in blankets, taking vitals, etc. All of this right in my eyesight. Course, I couldn't help but watch as I was wondering what they were going to do next & I felt so sorry for the man. Anyway....she finally finished up and let me go......I left as fast as I could get out of there. (smile)
Visit with the nurse practitioner went very well. Counts were all good......when she was finished with me and ready to make the next appointment......I suggested since it was my five year anniversary.....could we possibly stretch out the visits......& she asked me if I was comfortable with doing that & I said "yes".....so, next visit went to six months. I told her that I know my insurance will be happy. (smile) My white count was back to 4.4.....and Platelets were up some more 256. I told her about the last results from the new Primary Doctor and she said it could just be differences in labs. I agreed. Everyone have a wonderful day, Suzieq --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
