Occasional clinical febrility
... or in other words, Logan is still spiking fevers. He still generally feels well and has just begun to produce neutrophils. His WBC remains very low at 0.2, so 8% neutrophils still rounds to 0.0. His fever is better today than yesterday, but 100.5 is a pretty low bar to limbo. With a bit of luck, his counts will start to climb in the next couple of days. Historically, once he has a measurable neutrophil count, the fever breaks. We then usually sit around the hospital for 48 hours waiting for release.

There's a thought - you can "do the limbo" to pass the time :>) K, K, K, so that's a dumb idea - but the picture in my head of the three of you bopping to the limbo beat is an interesting visual. I continue to feel badly that you all have to endure this. I'm crossing all my fingers (and toes) and hoping for a speedy resumation of Logan's neutrophils.
ReplyDeleteDid I just make a new word there? Resumation ought to be a word if it isn't one already.
