Had the catheter put in Thursday (hate it). Slept in my recliner (not very well). Friday morning arrived at hospital lab at 7:30, had blood drawn, went to hospital oncology and got GCS-F shots, then had to head to work until 12:30 when oncology nurse called with the bad news. Seems my count went 'down' instead of up. Started at .7, then 3, now 1. Not good news. Have to go in Saturday (repeat Sunday). If my count doesn't go high enough, there is one more shot they can try (super GCS-F). It may be that the chemo (it's only been a week since I had it) that has my bone marrow taking longer to make the cells ... don't know. White cells keep going up just not the ones we need to collect. Hope the results get better, don't know what will happen otherwise. Kinda discouraged.
Will get dressing changed and catheter flushed tomorrow as well. Once again we have to wing it.
Send lots of positive thoughts of the results being what we want.
Love to all
