Check up

Yesterday I saw a urologist for the UTI and he suspects the ultrasound is how I contracted the infection. The antibiotics seem to be doing their job so I will just need a follow-up in a few weeks. I saw the nurse practitioner today at the cancer center and everything seems fine. I am neutropenic now as my white blood cell count is very low. That just means I am at risk for infection and need to stay away from people and public places until my white blood cell count goes up. I am still anemic so I get tired easily. I am not supposed to eat fresh fruits and vegetables for a while and they recommend I avoid salads. I guess this has to do with how thoroughly the food is washed and prepared. They even suggested I avoid restaurants as you just can't be sure of food safety unless you do the preparation. Didn't someone tell them I don't cook??? Next week is my next chemo so hopefully my counts go back up by next week. Have a great weekend!
