I was a bit worried seeing my new doctor for the second time, but he's the best, I had an infection a few weeks ago but its gone, when the nurse and doc came in the room I was calm usually worried, everything is well in order and platelets are up from 144 to 146. And another 6 months. Very Thankful . Hoping and Praying for each and every one of you. Best wishes to all .

Six months is a good thing! It's nice not living with butterflies in your stomach. Enjoy springtime and all that life offers.

Best wishes,

Sally

Thank you Peggy, My last doctor for 7 years was also good, he left to a private hospital in Miami. Patient overload I guess. They hired 2 or 3 to replace him. New Dr said call them instantly if I have a problem. Old Dr didn't seem to have the time. Nice when a Doctor has the time. Best wishes

Ballyhoo,  I understand the anxiety of changing doctors.   I have been with my oncologist for 26 years, have never gotten beyond the 6 mo appointment schedule.  He has gotten me through 4 cancers.  CLL last 10 yrs on W/W,  I have IVIG monthly.  I tell him he can't retire !! lol  We are both 65 ....  Good Luck and Best Wishes !  BJ
