Thinking Out Loud.....

He wrote that everything was in the desired range.
I will ask my oncologist in March.
What is your VD. I know you wrote it before but I forgot.
-
Mine was 21. VERY low. I would like to see it go up to about 80-90. I will be retested Feb 10th.
-
How? Are you still on 50.000mg tablets?
-
Those are good numbers. We will see what mine are like March 16th. I don't know what my VD level was, she said if is in normal range.
-
Normal range shows 20-100
-
In March of 08 my Lymphocytes were low but nothing was mentioned to me. I noticed it when I ask for all my medical records. The highest my cholesteral was was 246. April of 07 just before my surgery my chloride was high and Feb. of 2007 my Monocytes were high, what ever those are.
-
After my Physical in March I am going to ask for my med records from Jan 09 til march 2010.
I have a note book filled with all my med records since my dx, I have all the mammos, CT, and MRI cds. I can't tell what's what on them anyway.
-
My chloride was 98 (last year) I dont even know what that is. Normal range is 98-110.
-
Last week was the last 50,000 IU of VD. I still take about 3,000 IU's VD3 daily. We'll see what the numbers show. My dr. told me the normal range was 30-100 and 30 was very low. I don't think they really know since this is emerging science.
Deb. what are lymphocytes?
-
It's funny how some doctors have different references. My Chloride was 109 and the normal range says 98-107.
Oh Well.
-
Its something to do with the white blood count, normal range is 25-45 and mine was 22. It could be from rads. That was in March of 08.
-
I just grabbed my hematology report. My lymphocytes is 26.4. My report says the normal range is 17-51.
My chloride is 101 and the report says the normal range is 98-107.
I'm wondering if there are different "normal" rnages depending upon your age??? Just a thought.
-
Every lab has a slightly different normal range.
Deb..Pretend you are in NY and that number will be normal
This DR is hungry. Didnt eat yet. I will take my break now
-
I was tired of being a purple puff ball
-
Welcome back Deb!! You look great!!
I wonder what the Dr. is eating???
I've had the hungry horrors today!!
-
Linda...If that happens you know what to do, tall glass of water squeeze some lemon if you wish The shock of drinking the water will take your mind away from food.
My neighbor fed me. I had some roast beef, maybe little over half of cup spaghetti with broccoli rab and I made myself big bowl of mix salad. I'm full now.
I can have 2 Hershey kisses. I forgot to take my calcium, excuse me one second....okay little later I wash the dishes and take the garbage out.
-
What is lympocytes? I dont see that even listed. Does the Oncologist do that test or is it routine?
-
I think Deb said they have to do with white blood cell count. Mine was on my routine blood test.
I hate water....isn't that strange. I hate it more with lemon!! I'm not normal. I'm wondering if I'm getting my period. Haven't had one since the end of November!!
-
none of us are..........hahahaha I meant the water part not your period
-
hahahhahahaha!!!!!!!!!!!
-
Have not had my friend in over 4 yrs.
-
I'm jealous!!
-
-
Last time my friend visited me was July 2004, 8 months before my DX.
I dont miss it all.
-
Me neither.
-
I didnt have any symptoms at all, it was just gone.
-
Mine was acting strange for about a year then it stopped. So I was post men 1 yr b4 dx.
-
My BS told me probably I wouldn't have chemo if I was at least 1 year Post men.
but I needed Herceptin. So I had all the chemo and radiation and a burn breast which is still dark purple. But you don't see no scar and no burn because its right under my breast. On the other hand I have SNB scar and my port scar is the worse it always remained reddish.
I'm just thinking out loud, I really don't care as long as I remain healthy.
-
The only difference in my breasts is the left one is a little smaller and the nipple is alot lighter than the right. The scar is around the top of the areola, they did more like a flip top tit surgery, LOL. The tumor was just 1cm above the areola. And of course one of the tattoos looks like a blackhead in my cleavage.
-
Tamoxifen is messing me up!! Yes, let's blame the tamoxifen!!
