Chemotherapy Cycle #06 / Postponed

The chemotherapy for today was postponed till next Monday.  My platelet count is too low at 66. 

Nothing can be done to boost the platelet count. The body will have to do the work to produce the platelet. If not, have to receive transfusion of platelet but my count is not that low as to resort to transfusion.

All my other results are either good or maintained at the same level as previous tests. My red blood cell and haemoglobin is below normal marginally but of no major concern.

I may suggest to the Oncologist to modulate the cycle of my therapies to 2 and 1/2 weeks instead of 2 weeks to give the body time to produce the platelet.

Please pray for the platelet count to increase by this coming Monday.

In God I Trust.
