Lab draw
Andrew had a lab draw on Wednesday. His platelets went up about 5,000. His hemoglobin dropped slightly to 9.3. His white blood cells remained the same and his neutrophils dropped back under 500. The doctor wanted us to try one dose of the neupogen to see if that would stimulate his neutrophils. We gave Andrew the shot yesterday and he goes for another lab draw next Thursday.
