Congrats DJ!! So glad to hear the good news! My WBC went in to the low range too. I am not sure if you remember my post a while back about if RIBA helps with the common cold, well i guess i got it possibly, but just felt stuffy and not like a full blown cold. i did, however, end up getting bronchitis and I am still taking antibiotics now.

 Oh the bronchitis scares me because I seem to get that easily.  I sure hope I don't pick up my daughter's cold.  I have 4 hand sanitizer stations set up around the house and Lysol wipes out and ready to use.  So for now, I just wait and hope I don't get it.  

 I get it easy too, hopefully you'll be just fine!

Just got the news!  I am UND!!!!!!  That is the good news.  Bad news is my white blood cells are down and they want me to avoid people with colds/flu (and my daughter has one right now, so I have been exposed already and just hoping I am OK).  They are doing more tests on Thursday to decide is my medicines need reduced.  But I am UND!!!!!!  I am UND!!!!!!  I am UND!!!!!!! .....sorry, I just love saying it :)

 

BTW, this was at 4 weeks.  I missed my 2 weeks labs.
