I have not felt good since my hospitalization 2 weeks ago. I have been exhausted, dizzy, listless, and out of breath.
The doctor and nurses were not concerned because all my blood blood levels continued to be fine. Monday they called and told me to discontinue the coumidin for 2 days because my INR levels were to high. They also ordered up 3 days of potasium because my potasium was really low. Yesterday I went for a doctor's appointment and they checked my blood again. Doctor came in the room and said I needed to go straight to emergency. Apparently my RBC was 6.3. I needed a blood transfusion.
I am beginning to really hate hospital's. I convinced them to release me after the transfusion and got out of the hospital at 1:00am. Today is the first day in two weeks that I was able to come down my stairs without losing my breath and getting dizzy.
Next week is the last of my double dose chemo Cis/Gem. The week after that is a single Gem and then they will be done pumping poison into me. Then I can concentrate on getting better and moving on. I am so tired, but looking forward to being done.
Thanks for letting me rant,
