<strong>My</strong> Scan Will Be Done Tomorrow<br />
Bet your bottom dollar<br />
That tomorrow<br />
I'll be scanned.<br />
Just thinking about tomorrow<br />
It may be a day of sorrow,<br />
Or a day that's grand.<br />
It will be a day that's hot and sunny<br />
This is the test for all the money.<br />
Tomorrow, tomorrow, they'll scan me tomorrow<br />
Tomorrow's the day I'll know.<br />
With apologies to Annie<br />
I had my appointment <strong>with</strong> Dr Flam today.<br />
Labs are not great, but not terrible.<br />
<strong>My</strong> platelets are 84,000 up from 80,000.<br />
White count is normal at 6,900, down from 26,800 after Neulasta.<br />
Hemoglobin is down to 10.5 from 11.5 last week.<br />
Symptoms this week are mainly related to my hearing. The audiogram showed a mild<br />
high frequency hearing loss. This is manifest especially watching TV, where I can hear<br />
dialogue but have difficulty understanding it. This week, a new manifestation showed up.<br />
It feels like there is a low frequency tinny sound, accompanying speech like there is a<br />
defective speaker on a radio.<br />
Dr Flam wants me to see an ENT specialist. I have called my friend Richard Weinberg<br />
who will try to see me tomorrow after my CT.<br />
