Went for the platelet count. After being on the new drug for over a week, her platelets continued to drop, this time to 45000. The new drug, for infectious diseases, isnt working. The number should have been significantly higher.
She needs to go on the Immuno-Suppressive drugs, and probably stay on them. For the rest of her life? I dont know. I need to talk to a few people first.
Before that, I'm going to have them run another test ... I dont think it'll be too hard on her, it can be run under general anesthesia ... I'm scheduling her for a bone marrow aspirate on Tuesday. I've been considering it for the past few months, and might as well see if it tells us anything.
