Hi Everyone,
Here's an update, my MRI and EMG came back "totally normal" according to my neuro. However, my blood tests have been a little off....my platelet count has been low on my last 2 blood tests...135 on my first test, and 127 on my last test. My red and white blood cell count has been in normal range on both tests. My protein level was slightly elevated, but he said it was due to dehydration and nothing to be concerned about. He also said my blood sugar was a little elevated at 5.7, and that I should have a follow up test done...although he didn't seem to concerned considering it's just out of normal range. My GP says my kidneys and liver are functioning properly, and all my other tests are normal and negative. Has anyone here had similar issues with their blood work or had abnormal blood tests that you could share?
I was actually starting to feel a little better for about a week then the other day I started to feel dizzy and nauseous, and now I feel like I'm back to square one all over again. I'm scheduled to see a hematologist this Wednesday to see if I have a blood disorder.
It's been really difficult to stay positive these days...my wife is starting to stress out about this as well, and that's the last thing I want. I'm continuing to go to work and exercise, but most of time I just feel like I'm going thru the motions. I just hope for good days
