Spreadsheets

[Thinkimjob]

Sorry, I think I am being stupid. I know that I have seen on this wonderful site somewhere a link to a spreadsheet for keeping track of results. I have calmed down enough now to want to do this, but I cannot find the link! Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Standard blood test ranges with spreadsheets for Libre/Open Office or Excel can be found here:

cllsupport.org.uk/cll-sll/s...

Or a less comprehensive Excel version here:

cllsociety.org/toolbox/keep...

Both are updates of the original spreadsheet provided by Chaya Venkat and her husband of CLL Topics/Updates fame.

Thank you very much.

Hi Neil

I tried and failed to use this with Numbers on iMac and iPad, is there a newer compatible version, or am I being thick?

Thanks so much for your all your expert posts. I'm about to go through my blood results and see if they give me any clue about my recent cranial bleed.

Cheers Ottie

Hi Ottie,

You'll need to install LibreOffice for Mac per the instructions below. Note you need OSX 10.8 or later: libreoffice.org/get-help/in...

The just released latest version of LibreOffice is 5.2.1 and is downloadable from here for Macs:

libreoffice.org/download/li...

We have a few Mac users that should be able to help you if you need any further support.

Thanks Neil, that was quick. Just looked at bloods and platelets 245 (UK), so guess the Cavernoma bleed may be coincidence, or stress?

Cheers Ottie

You might have had a weakened blood vessel that finally failed, but do be aware that the clotting process is very complex with lots of dependencies, as we don't want clots forming unless absolutely required. Reassuringly your platelet levels are quite healthy. Mine haven't been above 180 in over 10 years and we have members surviving with counts regularly below 100.
