Home day 22 Hey everyone! Sorry for the delay in update, it has been a busy week for me. My results from Mondays lab work came back really good! WBC: 4.5 HGB: 11.2 Platelets: 362 My hemoglobin and platelets are in normal ranges again! My white count continues to climb while my body rebuilds my new immune system with fresh Cells, ones that have no memory of how to attack me, not like the old cells that have caused so much damage in my brain and on spinal cord over the years. My chemo fatigue is getting better. I still rest during the day and try very much not to push myself to far. As long as I have a good nights sleep every night I seem to stay on track with my energy. Energy conservation is still a huge part of my life, most of us already know when you push yourself to get somewhere we need a plan to get back too... Physical Therapy... PT is going amazingly well. Im still finding new muscles working (after HSCT) that I had no idea didnt work before. Walking is getting easier in regards to endurance, my gait pattern however needs a lot of work. I have been blessed with the most amazing physical therapy team. I still get confused when trying to correct my old bad walking habits, it is pretty overwhelming but having a great PT support team makes such a huge difference and really helps not only physically but mentally too. I have a before video of my walking and a video we took on Thursday I have been meaning to splice together to show the stages of my walking recovery but I have not had the time! I will try to get that posted this evening. Have a great weekend!!
