Dear T,
I went to my PCP doc today and had some abnormal labs including my mild but persistent elevated platelets/anemia, elevated WBC and neutrophils; elevated ALT, ASP (liver function), and low vitamin D. She's checking for a kidney infection, but she felt that was unlikely. She is referring me to a blood doctor but reassured me not to be afraid. I almost started crying when the nurse came in to make the appointment, she said that she wanted to make sure I got in before Christmas. But then she said, "not that I need to." They knew I just wanted to know what was going on. My PCP doc said that she thinks the numbers indicate something inflammatory. I asked her if cancer was a possibility, and she said yes, but the other numbers aren't showing that.

I'm so tired and spaced out right now.
