Staying the night for a Biopsy / disability letter Mood
Thursday, June 19, 2008 | A General Update story

Well I went in for my biopsy and the Dr would not do it unless I could stay the night 

he stated that my platelets are too low 85,000 out of 200,000 so he paged my PHP

he did not call back asap so they sent me home. Now it is set for after the 4th

and I will have to stay the night not wanting to, I do however want to get the

test over with so we do what we have to IF YOU WOULD SAY A PRAYER FOR ME

I would be very grateful   

 

 

 

I  also received a letter from Disability stated they need more info

about the Hep-c testing I gave them the new info hope to hear

something soon they also stated I might have to see one of there

    When you will get your biopsy done, things to ask for:
    1. grade is any damage, at what grade is it?
    2. stage if any damage, at what stage are you?
    3. fibrosis any damage indicating fibrosis?
    4. cirrhosis any damage indicating cirrhosis?
    5. liver enzyme normal or not?

    How high is your viral load?

    What genotype are you?

    Will he put you on treatment?

    Take note or print this information and bring with you at all times.
    You need to have an answer to all of these quesions.
    Good luck and love & respect.
