Today is 6 weeks since Rion started his last chemo dosage and after lab work today it's a no-go again for at least another week. His white blood cells are still very low- in fact his neutrophils are lower than they have ever been before. We have a call into Duke to see if Rion needs to get the booster injection they have discussed with us before. We would also like to lower the chemo dosage so Rion can finish the last 2 dosages in a reasonable amount of time- he has only had 2 dosages in the last 12 weeks with all of the waiting for his levels to come back up. I also can't help but think that it isn't good to keep lowering his white blood cells & platelets to the point that they are not rebounding as they should. But what do I know, I'm just the paranoid wife right?!?
So...nothing really new to report but I'll post another update when we hear back from Duke or after lab work next week.
