Good news

I was a bit nervous this morning. Not because Claudia took my blood again at the breakfast table...
But because we were chasing this particular Neutrophil value (above 1.0) and i had no idea what the outcome would be. I dropped the "vacutainer" of blood at the RUH's pathology lab mid-morning.

I called up the hospital later in the day to be told the best news.
My Neutrophil count was 2.6!! (normal humanity starts at 2.5..)
Added to that my Hb (Haemoglobin) levels were above average at 14.9 and my platelet count was pretty healthy, weighing in at 196.

To non-medical dunces like me, my blood results were much better than expected and this was basically my bright green light for our Sweden holiday.
WELL chuffed.

Darren's now staying with us, which has been great fun, and he & i went to see the latest Terminator film in the evening. A great film if you're pessimistic about the future!
