Blood counts are low...let's fight.

Typical scenario, as in, it what is expected post chemo; my blood counts were pretty low today. As in low enough that the nurses are asking me to get a platelet transfusion. This is about the last thing I EVER want to do and I fought them to let me see if they come up overnight. It's been my experience that when they drop so low and everyone is freaking out, is about the time that they start getting better.

I hadn't any side effects to indicate any problems; no nose bleeds, no bruising, no blood in the toilet, etc etc etc. Sure tired a bit, but I've been working.
