What do you mean a carrier? Like even when he no longer has symptoms he still has the bug?

When I checked him in at the hospital Tuesday for chemo, I asked that he be tested. I do not think that they have done a test yet nor have they said anything about it to Harry.

I am a little concerned about the dismissal of this without verification. If he is a carrier, does this mean that he might get ill again when his counts drop after the chemo?

He already has anemia because of the chemo and they give him a neulasta injection because he is suseptible to nutropenia.

Should I be more insistent about having him tested?

Thanks,
Cindy
