January 28, 2009: Jill finally had a good night's sleep. She took a sleeping pill that helped. Her WBC was only 0.1 yesterday, but it is back to 0.3 today. Yesterday's counts were the lowest so far. That explains the exhaustion.
She felt better in the morning, but as the day progressed, she was tired again and slept most of the afternoon. The Neupogen shots are causing some pain in her lower back. It could get a lot worse, but we are thinking positive. Her white count went up three points from yesterday. That is a very positive sign because they did it on their own.
She doesn't eat much but she likes her raspberry sherbet! She drinks most of the time instead. The fluids fill her up so fast, she just can't eat. The nurse is making her shakes from orange sherbet, vanilla pudding, and milk. She loves them and it doesn't require any effort for her to drink.
Love,
Doreen
