Guest guest Posted May 6, 2008 Report Share Posted May 6, 2008 Well it looks like I’m in for a trip soon. I went to see my Allergist/Immunologist today. She said that it is time for me to quite mickey mouseing around with the doctors around here. She is referring me to Cleveland to see Dr. Achkar, to do a follow up for the Barrett’s and the gastric issues that I’m having, and also wants me to have an immunology work up. She said that she questions whether or not I really have Lupus or if there isn’t something else going on because my system as a whole is going down the tubes and that my lab results don’t make a lot of sense where my cells that make up the WBC are whacked out, my platelets have dropped from 209,000 to 147,000 (her norm is 150,000 to 400,000) that drop was in the last 5 weeks. I keep getting infections and she said that some of my immune tests say one thing but others say something else…. In a nut shell she wants me to see a specialist and get it all figured out. So now I gotta start making plans!! Yippie!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
