Hi,
today i had the second and last chemo (carboplatinum)
just before actually having the treatment blood as taken:
i am going to compare important readings to the ones taken before the first treatment:
HGB hemoglobin: 22/09/13 14.7 20/10/13 14.0
WBC white blood cells 22/09/13 11.10 20/10/13 7.4
NEUT (ANC) 22/09/13 6.9 20/10/13 3.9
PLT 22/09/13 239 20/10/13 320
Creatinine Clearance: 20/10/13 110 (serum: 0.78)
so it looks really good, due to all the natural stuff i have been taking and dieting, and getting even closer than usual to nature.
started though on a left foot, forgot to take the tab. before meal. so i am going to wait another 3 hours to have a snack i take the tab. 30 minutes before small snack.
i feel tired. and something that i have not heard from other people, the chemo effects my vocal cords, i get hoarse. getting my prune juice ready and pomegranate juice ready for tomorrow.
i will update soon.
