Well, yesterday I officially engrafted. There was an increase in my white
blood cells up to 1.2 and I actually had some new Leutrophyls floating
around. Bone marrow does not do this sort of thing unless it's happy and
nuzzled into one of my bone cavities so all the doctor's are very happy.
This has led to a bit of a fever and a few days of nausea again, but now
that I've learned how to puke with that gross chunk of dead skin in my mouth.
I kind of have to puke like I'm swimming the front crawl.
1. Head goes down and vomiting commences
2. Lift head up and turn it to the left like an Olympic swimmer. This will
cause the flap to dislodge itself from my airway and lets me get a few
breaths in before I've got to go for it again. No puking so far today and
it's almost 11:00pm. (Knock on wood)
Here's another medical tidbit that I don't think I've mentioned. from
November 2nd to today, I've lost 10 KG's. Luckily it's come mostly off
the pot that I had, so I'm not too upset.
I wish I could write more but I need another good night of sleep. Hope you
guys don't mind out there.
Thanks
