I was kept busy yesterday with receiving two units of blood and a bag of platelets. Again the reason for this is just to keep me going until my body starts to produce enough of them on its own. Apart from that I actually feel fine. This is the most frustrating part of the cycle, were I feel fine but just need to wait for my counts to recover.
It is hard to believe that it is 100 days since I went to the doctors and was admitted to the hospital, so all being well only another 40 or 50 days to go. I don’t know what happens at the end of cycle 4 - if there is more treatment in the hospital or if I go under the care of my GP. I will start asking at the beginning of cycle 4 what the long term plan is.
I have started to stick the car together which is easier to do than the painting bits, I’m doing it in stages to let the glue dry before going on to the next bit.
… Only 6k on the exercise bike yesterday, I was having a blood transfusion at the time and did not want to over do it…
