Some of you asked for graphs, so here you go. For a reminder of what the abbreviations stand for, see Day +3, post. (Graphs last updated May 13).
First, a complicated graph capturing all of Nadia’s counts since transplant. (Tx stands for Transfusion)
Next up is WBC and ANC. Healthy people have (roughly) WCB > 7 and ANC > 2.5.
Shown below is Nadia’s platelet counts, with each line representing what happened after a transfusion. All black lines are previous transfusions, the darkest line is the most recent. The dark blue line is from her last transfusion. Healthy people have roughly PLT > 150. Nadia is now a platelet-making rock star!
And finally, her Hgb counts, shown following each transfusion. Healthy people have roughly Hgb > 120.
