Waiting for the Specialist to call

Yesterday early evening I got my follow-up blood test done.

My hemoglobin is still 15% lower than the bottom of the "normal" range.

My white blood cell count overall is normal, but it's 84% lymphocytes and 11% neutrophils - the normal range on those two items is closer to the reverse of my numbers, down to evenly split.

My regular doctor is mystified. He's going to be getting the results to the specialist he referred me to today, and the specialist should be calling me back to discuss what's next. I'm hoping for that call sometime this afternoon.

And, in between all the delays while I was trying to get this posted, the appointments person called. I have an appointment for 9AM next Tuesday, March 30th, at the Riverside Infusion Center in Minneapolis.
