My leukemia's back.

I hope they can speed things up for you. Worry is never good.
Express your concerns here, let the kids sleep well -someone needs too.

Thank you my friends.

I've told Eve and Roscoe, and they're both sleeping soundly on the sofa. Not a care in the world. Sometimes I think it would be good to be a dog.

But I like having thumbs.

And ice cream

Rachel, You're in my prayers. Specifically that all of your concern will be no cause for concern, that the medical staff will LISTEN to you, that you will have the peace that passes all understanding as you wait for answers. And that Jesus will lay his healing hand on you and restore your health.

Rachel.....
.....as I sit here still gasping for air...:/...
....I think being a nurse maybe your own worst enemy.....anxiety wise.
....do the Dr's ever do a (excuse me if I get the name of this a little wrong but you'll know what I'm talking about)
Abl fish probe on you?
....this test may not pertain to your type of leukemia. But they did it to me looking for any signs of the Philadelphia chromosome.
...I've never had a marrow biopsy since they started doin that test.....
.....I know for me my blood test are all over the place for a long time...mostly I think because of the tons of strong meds I was on.
...For me I always watched white count and basil cells....if they were out of whack I would have freaked.....I remember being paralyzed with fear one Halloween....... Do try to remember one thing though if the Dr's were concerned then you would have a reason to worry....my problem was my Dr was always concerned.....even when I wasn't...... .
I'm here....pm me if you want I'll listen. no matter what the test says keep up the fight....I will....and I'll try fighting for you too. If I could do more than just give you my support I would. Don't let your worry ruin today God gave you the gift of today accept it. I should remind myself that more often too. Hopefully you can expedite the test and soon we can talk about how silly this worry can be....love your friend.....Phil

Hang in there, Rachel. Remember where you were a year ago and take heart. If I'm not mistaken (and I might be confusing your post about this with Jenna's about Ashley, so forgive me if I'm wrong) I think labs were discussed way early on here and you had said that you expected some yo-yo for the first year or so. Don't know if this fits into that category or not, but you know you've got my prayers for whatever you need!

 

[Outpost JWB]

Many prayers going out for you Rachel. We all are here for you.

 

[LittleLakePhil]

BLOOIE!! . You are exactly right.
My labs yo yo'd for years and my outcome is about as good as you can get.
We are here for her...she knows it.

Hey Rachel, your Team Rachel is here for you any time you want (heck, even if you don't, lol).

'Even if you don't'. We're committed - or at least perhaps we should be.
