Due to the timing of my blood being taken and the doctors doing their rounds, they are usually looking at the previous days results when they talk to me. So yesterday they told me that my Neutrophils had shown a slight flicker of movement, they were 0.1 (that would have been on Wednesday). I don’t know if they went up again yesterday and my blood has not been taken today yet. So hopefully this is the start of my recovery phase. My red blood count was a little bit low so I received one unit of blood yesterday.
I’m feeling fine at the minute, getting to that stage were it would just be nice to get out of this room. I don’t think I have actually left this room for 24 days. Getting a bit tired after lunch, having a quick snooze in the afternoon - but that may be down to being woken up at 2am and 6am.
I watched quite a lot of DVDs yesterday, still working my way through the Frozen Planet, a series on Design, a Yogi Bear movie and Alfie (the remake with Jude Law not the original with Michael Caine - we saw that last year).
Isabel brought in dinner again last night, I’m sure not having to eat the food in here is helping my recovery. She then went and got us some nice coffee from Starbucks and we watched Alfie.
… 7 k again on the exercise bike, I don’t want to over do thinks at the minute…
