hi guys
how r u all . well lewis has had a good couple of weeks but his symptoms seem to be creeping back again . hes had tummy ache for two ays on and of .i just dont no what happens differntly for his pain to come back is baffles me . his blood work came back as hes had another bash at the azathioprine as the docs think it was due to an infection thats why hlis levels dropped so much . but his neautrophils have dropped to 1.4 his nurse said there going in the wrong direction again . so he.ll have his bloods done again this friday . lewis has also been asked to take part in a research sstudy for thiopruine induced mylosuppresion they will take an ampule of blood with his nxt bloods friday and they are going to look in to why some people react to the thioprine and see if they can predetermine if someone will have problems in the future by finding a link in peoples dna or genetics so people wont have to risk taking these meds and can start on others it wont help lewis now but it may help others in rhe future
hopefully his neautrophils will rise again of not i think it will be on the the nxt med . i do worry about swopping and changing did anyone else have to juggle these medsx
