They called me today and want me to come in for a iron infusion on Thursday. I am enamic (spelling?) Normal numbers are from 58 to 150, mine was at 38. Looks like the chemo catches up to you. This low a number even though I'm taking two iron pills a day?
Saturday I cut the lawn and every 15 minutes I had to stop and rest for ten. Felt like I was going to pass out, couldn't seem to catch my breath. Doctor is having a chest x-ray done before next infusion in three weeks. Anyone else experience this?
