Check-up

On Thursday I had another check up. I had my blood test (done by an agency nurse or someone with little experience, who attacked both arms and made a bit of a hash of it) and took it to the lab. When I got the results back I was pretty worried as I'd had a blood test last week and the counts had changed quite a bit. My platelets, haemoglobin and red blood cells were all under the limit and my white cells were far higher than normal (although still within the limits). However, the consultant checked over them the next day with a microscope and there's nothing abnormal to be seen so I'm very relieved! Apart from that there's nothing new to report. Mum and Anna have raised £1000 towards Cancer Research which is fantastic.
I'm off to Devon next week which will be great as I haven't got away for a break at all yet.
Will keep things updated.
