Since my surgery I've been having trouble breathing at times. Whenever I played soccer or ran I would be out of breath extremely fast and panting to catch my breath. I thought I might just be really out of shape, but the thing was that I played soccer 3 weeks after my surgery and wasn't panting that much. It only started to happen after I stopped the prednisone. I went in for some x-rays and some other radioactive tests to see if there was a blod clot in my lung. That was two weeks ago and I've heard nothing so I figured I must just be out of shape. Until now.
Well, actually the bad news is a little different. I went to get my blood checked yesterday as I hadn't gone for a month since my last results were around 450,000. However, I just got off the phone with the Specialist's secretary and was told that I need to go in to get a complete blood work done tomorrow and the Specialist wants to see me. I then found out my platelet count was at 21,000. Not good!
