Hi all
I took CBC, Liver/Kidney/Sugar blood tests on Monday. Usually I got the results back next day. I didn’t get a call on Tuesday (the day after). Today is Wednesday and the nurse called me because dr wanted to check previous blood results last month while I was in the hospital for preeclampsia postpartum.
Since her phone call, I could barely function. I feel cold and heart has been racing. I tried to eat but barely got anything in. My appt is with her today at 4pm. I have to ask my husband take off work early to go with me. I just can’t deal with it. I mean it’s obviously something abnormal which made her to compare with previous blood tests, right? But if it’s something major like Leukemia they would have reached me on Tuesday not today right? My mind is racing to the worst case.
Some background:
I’m 8 weeks postpartum. I had preeclampsia during pregnancy and postpartum. I was readmitted to the hospital just 4 weeks ago for high blood pressure. They did lot of blood work there. My liver number was elevated. My platelet count was elevated but the obgyn at that time wasn’t worried. She only asked me to follow up with my GP for liver.
