Whoopee!

After 4 hours of poking, prodding and testing, it seems I have tonsillitis but am not neutropenic. In lay terms, I have pus on both tonsils and a mump like appearance, but my blood count is not so low that I need hospitalisation. Apparently I would have had to stay in for 3 days on an intravenous course of antibiotics. As it is I have come home with some tablets- much more preferable methinks!
My liver function has been affected by the chemo though and they need to monitor that before the next dose of intravenous bleach!!

That's just typical - liver problems - just how are you expected to get your 2 daily units now!
