Guest guest Posted June 28, 2008 Report Share Posted June 28, 2008 He everyone, went to Ann Arbor for my 5th infusion yesterday. My labs had all been way down, now they are up, most important the ANC went from.9 (or was it ..8?) to 2.0, WBC 3.8, hgb 10.7,plt 161. I am not considered nuetropenic anymore. They also said to see my doctor about putting me back on the drugs he took me off because of bad kidney functions. That doctor is on vacation. I called my local onc. that doctor is on vacation. I called Ann Arbor, they said take them, well two of them anyway. My feet and legs and toes are so swollen with water retention, so I am back to taking lasix, and potassium, and hydrochlor. (I never remember the abreviation for that!). So hopefully about 5 lbs of water will leave this ole bod.! I have 3 / 20oz bottles of water in the fridge, I make my self drink all of them every day, plus what I take my pills with. If my labs are too low next Wed. for an infusion, I am going to ask them if they can put me on a two week schedule, the first 3 put me in CCR, I am hoping they will consider this. That's about it for the XL228 update, everyone have a great weekend, love, Bobby a (Bobby) Doyle Brecksville, Ohio, USA DX 05/1995 02/2000 - Gleevec Trial/OHSU 06/2002 - Gleevec/Trisenox Trial/OHSU 06/2003 - Gleevec/Zarnestra Trial/OHSU 04/2004 - Sprycel Trial/MDACC, CCR in 10 months #840 - Zavie's Zero Club 09/2006 - out of CCR 04/29/08 - XL228 Trial/ U.of Michigan 06/02/08 - CCR ( in 4 weeks) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
