Dr. Appointment Update

Just wanted to let you know that I saw my PCP this morning and he sent me to do some other tests. I had to draw more blood, and also do a Bleeding Test..

Needless to say, I failed on that one. They cut my arm open and waited to see how long it took for my blood to clot. She said normally people tend to stop around 4 minutes, oh not me..  LoL.. I have to always be difficult. It took me over 8 and a half minutes to finally start to clot my blood.

I am not sure what that means, but have another follow up appointment with my PCP next week. Good news though the bleeding is slowing down, and that is GREAT!

I also have some REALLY REALLY GOOD NEWS.. My liver counts are DOWN, YEA!!! 
Still low on my D, but working on that.. I am so happy though that my LIVER seems to be improving. Some bit of good news in this crazy week I have had.

Thank you all for all your support, love, and prayers.

Hugs,
Jenn

Jenn,

So glad to hear you are feeling better and good news on your tests.  I remember when my ex was going in for surgery, he took about the same amount of time to clot and he had a vitamin K deficiency!  So glad you're feeling better tho.

Can't wait to see you in May!

Hugs,
Barb
