Last days of having a spleen

The countdown is on. Friday I will have my surgery. This week is so stressful. Yesterday I went for my platelet count and I am at 59,000. He said I will need a platelet transfusion before the surgery Friday morning. I have to go Thursday for a type and cross blood test so they know what to get me :/ 

That visit Monday was fun :/ blood would not come out of my arm! 

Every time it would go sooooo slow! It would just go to the little wire tube. Never reaching the collection tube. ( I should know that actual names by now ) 

So now my arm is so pretty 

Petechiae all over on the right side :( 

My hands all looking about that same as well I'm just too lazy to take a picture haha 

So today Tuesday- I went to my primary/liver dr. For clearance on my pre testing for surgery. All good :) 

My liver is doing well! First thing he said was 'your liver is doing great for not beig on medication' 

AST and ALT slightly elevated but barely 

Yay!!

Finally some good news. 

 

I only had work this morning. Which was a huge help. I cleaned all morning the dr and now writing while dinner bakes. 

Tomorrow I have to go food shopping and Thursday I go for that blood test. Then friday is the day ! 

Ugh ... I'm really happy my dr gave me anxiety pills for Friday. I'm beyond nervous/scared

It will go well. I have to remember that.
