Guest guest Posted August 1, 2002 Report Share Posted August 1, 2002 Hi Friends. I'm so happy! I just called the research facility, and got the results of the lab work they did last Friday for the Remicade study. As some of you may remember, my white blood count was a concern, because it was 3.7 (or 3700) on my last test. I ate well, took an extra folic acid, and my white blood count was 4.8. That's a big gain! She said as far as the study is concerned, my blood work is great. I have an appt tomorrow for the DEXA bone scan, and the appointment with the rheumy in charge of the study. As long as that goes well, I should have my first infusion Tuesday! I'd appreciate any prayers you can offer that things go well with the Dr. tomorrow. Since I'm uninsured and I've been having a really bad time the past few months, I'm hoping the Remicade will be my " miracle " . Heaven knows I can't afford the cost of Remicade on my own. I will let you know what happens when I get back from Gainesville tomorrow. I hope everyone is having a great day. Love and hugs, Carol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
