Platelets and blood- food of kings

Had some platelets last night just to top up my low levels. This time I got them at 10pm, which is much better because once I got the antihistamine shot that comes with it, I went out like a light and slept soundly all night.
I'm going to have some more blood this morning, as my haemoglobins are getting low. I think I'll start laughing and talking in a cartoon vampire's voice when the nurses come in, just to see how they react.
Day 11 today. Still feeling relatively comfortable. No sore mouth, energy is low and I get occasional headaches. So not bad at all.
Just waiting for my blood counts to start rising and for my hair to fall out - they say slapheads are sexy, so I'm looking forward to that phase of things 😄

  3. Glad it's all going pretty well so far Trevor. Good that the kids can visit daily - it's better than any medicine. I'm sure the bed can stand it! Hang on in there.
