way to go! keep up the good work.
AAAWWWWWWWEEEEEEESSSSSSSOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!
this sounds good....we started the same time...it'll be nice to dump the incivek.....good luck...billy
Great news on the platelet recovery!! Sounds like you have a good Dr. that at least considers your input. That's invaluable and often hard to find.
Best of luck to you!! Pam
I am feeling fantastic. I hope this feeling for you too. We will keep the good fight up. I want us all to get our lives back so much......xoxo
I think they go by you resistance to infection count not the wbc as to when to put you on rescue drugs. I could be wrong My doctor didn't seem to be concerned with the wbc number just the other one.
Glad to hear the good news! Hope your platelets stay up there.
I think neutrophils are your resistance to infection and mine were OK a little low but OK. WBC of 2.0 is low but torrable for some. I have been as low as 1.6 on interferon / ribavirin 84 weeks to beat me down to that, so 2.6 is good with me for now I just have to make it through Incevik 4 more weeks, and I believe and I will be OK .
I'm soooo proud for you. I know you've gotta be feeling amazing relief right now mentally. I'm right behind ya girl! Way to go! Karen :)
Great news all away around, both a doctor and a patient thats not afraid to go after it.
The best going forward.
I was talking about the hemoglobins being 10.4. that's different then WBC. They don't go by the WBC they go by I think it's called neutrophils, absolute and mine is 1024 Low but OK.My WBC Is 2.0
I also am in went for week 8 today, want UND at 4 weeks,Got labs from week 6 today and everything is down a little but not anything to panic about they said WBC was 3.6 I donot know haw that translates to the numbers you gave, Felling good and fighting on
Best to Ya and fight on
Sounds like you have a good doc....so important with these meds....and congrats on those plats... good luck the rest of the way!

Wow, your platelet numbers are fantastic, especially considering what they were just four weeks ago! Really great that you and your doc are on the same page. And, hopefully your hgb will hold above that 10 so that you won't need the procrit. Good response, good care... makes for a great day!
So it sounds like your doctor will work with you --helps when you're an informed patient, for sure!... Hope whether you do the 24 or the 48 that it all gets only better for here... definitely a relief to be out of 'bleeder' territory... congrats on the bounce-back! ~eureka
