An Update & Request for Prayer: November 13, 2009

We continue to await the culture results from the endoscope procedure I had performed on Monday. These results will influence many treatment decisions.

Tomorrow I will complete my ten day cycle of Neupogen treatments for neutropenia. Today my ANC was over 3000, so that is a definite improvement.

Discussions are underway regarding the possibility that I will have to face surgery inside my sinus cavities. Any type of surgery poses significant risks to me, given my immune status and leukemia (my platelets are currently low).

Please pray that these infections will resolve without surgical intervention and that my counts will improve.
