Autologous Cord Blood (Stem Cell) Transplantation - Day 12

Adrian finally developed the long awaited neutropenic fever this afternoon. Blood was drawn for culture and the doc has immediately started 2 anitibiotics on him. His Neutrophils has moved up a bit more at 0.11 but his platelet count was low at 15 for which he received another 2 units of platelets today. Almost 2 weeks after the intensive chemo, Adrian's hair has started to fall off. We suspect the mucoscitis is on its way as Adrian used to enjoy teeth brushing and now hated it!!
