Got a hema!!!!!

WHOOHOO! I finally got an appointment to see a hematologist! Granted... it's not until May 18th.. but it's something! AAAaaaannnnd it's at UC Davis Med Center.... I'm keeping my fingers crossed that he'll be a hotty just like the rest of them when I was there in March. :)
So until then, I'm on my own. I made the call last week to go to 40mg of Pred... and now I'm making the call again to go to 30mg. I haven't told the school doctor yet.... she might not be pleased with that, but hey! You just never know until you try, right? Everyone thought my count would drop more, but it didn't!. so you just never know what'll happen. Needless to say, however, I will be watching my body like a hawk.

Odd headache today... It seemed to go away after every time I peed.... what's that all about? And my pee looked a little cloudy to boot. I'll drink more cran water tomorrow.

I got my medical alert jewelry in the mail a few days ago and have attached it to my platelet awareness bracelet. It makes for a good reminder to me to BE CAREFUL and not go bumping into things. I'm getting better about that, though the new bruise on my leg will tell you otherwise... stupid end table!


Here's to high platelets!!!!!
