The Lightning won in overtime last night....glad we were there....Linda was in the wheelchair which saved her a lot of energy...she also withheld from shouting and screaming and...and...which she is prone to do .....to save energy.
.
Today Linda woke up with a blood pressure reading of 84 over 61.... ouch ....water ...water ....water. By the end of the day it increased to 97 over 67. We believe it is the cumulative effect of the chemo Alimta. More than likely tomorrow she will do infusion of hydration in addition to the blood tests.
Linda's problem is not immunity..er white blood counts are good...it is the red blood cell production which is down...so it's not about avoiding crowds ...or...or. It is getting the volume of blood to increase...anemia is the key word.
