Like many things in life, it's about the numbers. Ricky's platelets fell to 61K on Wednesday, which is below the 75K threshold needed for treatment. We had been hoping he would still be around 100K, in which case we would have increased the dosage, but instead, we reduced it by half yet again. So he's getting 25% of the guideline dose. Not sure if this will be effective......
He's also just feeling pretty poor. Malaise, fatigue, TIAs, a slight cold, you know he's not feeling good when he doesn't want to go to eat. He's at a EN&T specialist this morning to see if we can get a handle on the bloody noses which have been happening the last few weeks.
MRI is the 14th...........
