Counting Backwards

Just got my latest CBC results. Not very encouraging...

Neutrophils fell from 880 down to 660 (good is 2000)
Lymphocytes fell from 450 to 380 (good is 1500)
RBC fell from 3.85 to 3.73 (good is 5)
WBC fell from 1.38 to 1.1 (good is 6.0)

Platelets went up from 87 to 97. (good is 160)

Count wise, everything else stayed about the same.

My cholesterol was better:
HDL is up to 30 from a low of 18 (that's better)
LDL is down to 31 (anything less than 100 is good)
Total cholesterol is 88 (less than 200 is good, but very low is a disease marker)
and triglycerides are at 133 (normal)

The original protocol plan was to have another CBC 4 weeks from now, but given my slow and backward progress, we're having another one done next week.

Pushing rocks is exhausting, and I'm not getting that golden tan that they promised either.
