Day 5

Slept pretty well buk woke feeling even weaker and more tired than yesterday.  It is expected that my symptoms will actually be worse for a while.....and......they really are.   Hands tingling, arms weak, and legs wobbly.

Got the news that I had been dreading!  Platelet count is low.  Not critically but the concern is that it continues to drop.  Soooooo.  I have to stay tonight, check bloods tomorrow, maybe go home if they have rebounded. Or. May have to stay.  In any case goal is to have final day of treatment on Monday.

Not what I wanted to hear.

And now...a rash!   Not completely unexpected but not wanted either!  This is, however, why they wanted me in the hospital tonight rather than at home.
