Another Liver Blood Test

  • Tracleer Update: Blood test tomorrow..blah!

Well, here we go again. In order for me to continue to take Tracleer--that monsterously expensive medication ($4k a month), I have to have a blood test every month. These tests are very important because they show whether or not my liver has been affected by the Tracleer. So far, it hasn't! Although, it does lower my red blood cell count. It's still within acceptable range. I'm sure the doctor would like for me to take a vitamin with iron in it but iron does not agree with me.

I'm gearing up for 3 doctors' appointments this month. I'm so excited. Not really. =o) Tomorrow is when I plan to have my blood test and to reward myself for doing so, I'm going to the craft store! Now that's exciting news.

I've noticed that I've put on a couple of pounds of weight. So, I'm going to try hard to make myself more motivated. I've really lagged on getting things done. I'm telling ya'll, my readers, that I'm going to do better! Are you with me??? =o)

If you have questions, post it as a comment. It won't immediately appear once you post it. I have the comments set for me to approve them first before they are posted. Sorry about that. I'm trying to battle the spammers. Your questions are important. Remember, I'm not a doctor but I am an oxygen patient who happens to have scoliosis & heart problems. =o)

Take care!

Christine
