I had a direct check-in (white count 0.0, platelets 3), I'm in a nice room, have met my friendly RN and we are just waiting for the platelets to show up. I'm getting two units of those first and then two units of red cells, so I will be here awhile. They told me I can check out when it's done or if it's really late I can just sleep here and go home in the morning.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08018172805489963981noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28403347.post-56412992549863291052008-12-26T07:54:00.000-06:002008-12-26T07:54:00.000-06:00Becky~Ditto to what Mary wrote.

After that, the RN contacts your doc with an update on how you did, what your stats are. If all goes well, you can check out after that. I remember it being about a six hour stay.<BR/><BR/>I hope your visit is short and sweet! Hugs, Mary/saffTaste the Rainbowhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12735347798641258202noreply@blogger.com
