update

Mom had blood work done yesterday morning and was called with the results:
neutropenia: low white blood count that can put chemo patients at risk for severe infection and may interrupt chemo treatments.
Mom does not have (or had at any time) a raised temperature, but will go into UCSF todayfor a urinary test to see if there is any infection there. She was given a list of things to avoid...sick people (and sick children especially). She will wear a mask when needed and as recommended and take her temperature every day.

Mom and dad thought the person who had called, was somewhat of an alarmist when she first called, and then calmer when she called back after talking to the doctor.

Mom says she feel fine though, so we'll see what result she gets back today
