Four and five weeks on: Jealousy and blue cheese.

Highlights:
- Still coughing but the cold has gone!
- First blood test done and dusted!
- Full drinking capability has returned.
- Bye bye to the one month pregnancy diet.

So I had my first blood test last week. I'll never embrace the fact that someone utters the words "sharp scratch", sticks a very sharp object into one of my veins,  drains me of my blood whilst I wait for the magic words "got it". Anyway, a few days later and I get the results back that they are within the expected range and my lymphocyte count was good for the first blood test at 0.5. I must Google what normal lymphocyte count is...

What I am finding now is that I am becoming jealous of all those people who are starting/have completed round 2 of Lemtrada. I want to be further on with the treatment. How exciting it must be to know that (hopefully) the end is in sight.

Finally, I had some blue cheese on Saturday and it was delicious.

That is all 😊
