Chemo: week 6 - blood counts.

Lab test results so far in chemo treatments.
August 10 - Blood tests before first Chemo infusion - Carboplatin & Gemzar
August 17 - Blood test before second chemo infusion - Gemzar alone.
August 24 - Blood test before third chemo - counts had dropped too low so no infusion of Gemzar.
August 31 - No blood test this week - week off to recover strength.
September 7 - Blood test before first chemo of second round - carbo & gem
September 14 - Blood test before Gemzar.

The second round of infusions are at a lower dose of Gemzar to reduce depression of blood counts enough to allow us to safely administer the third dose.
