This is a title to meditate on......
At the hospital yesterday I had some good news. It seems that the steroids may be working as the white blood count has gone down to 115,000 and my HBG is up to 12. Hooray. The steroid dose (Prednisolone) has been going down by 5mg a day from an initial start of 50mg and this week the dose is 10mg a day. Doesn't sound a lot but I guess this is what a drug addict feels when they aren't getting their full dose. I shake most of the time and don't feel at all well, but my doc says this is all to do with the steroids, so I am reassured that it is not all CLL. Next week the dose will change again and my doc says to be ready to start treatment at the drop of a hat. He thinks we will manage to keep my husband's angiogram date on 9th February and probably start after that, all being well.
