Blowin' in the wind

I'm back in hospital tomorrow, having my next round of tests to see I can take my second course of Cladribine.

Almost unbelievable that a year has passed since that first appointment.

But time does indeed fly.

My lymphocytes need to have recovered enough to allow me to do this, to at least 0.8, I think, but I will get the details tomorrow as prescribing parameters may have changed over the past 12 months.

My last bloods in June put me at 0.73, so, assuming the 0.8 is still correct, we shall see if my poor body has managed to do what it needs to do to get over the line.

But even then, it's only the first hurdle in the wonderful world of MS drugs.

Can I take them is not the question. Really, the question is will they work?

And the answer to that is currently wafting on the breeze.
