kimblanchard Posted April 25, 2003 Share Posted April 25, 2003 It's been a long rough week. Mike has felt so miserable...indigestion...gall bladder pain. It's the process of supplementing him with all the missing enzymes, amino acids, minerals and vitamins. It's thrown his body into a "detox" state. It's not getting much better....it's a very slow process and everything I read about it says it will take as long as it takes. But today the holistic doctor called with the results of his blood tests that we had drawn on Monday. His liver enzymes are all good. She said that he has no signs of liver failure and even his protein levels are good. She also said his hemoglobin is up to 11.1 (higher than it's been in months!), his hemocrit is 38, and his white cells are 9.8. Overall she said his blood work showed he is in much better shape than what she expected a liver cancer patient to be! The good thing about this? Knowing that the discomfort and feeling of "yuckiness" is the detox...not the cancer! God is good all the time. All the time....God is good!
