NikiH - More info....Re: Oh no NKs even higher!! (pg ment)


Oh Niki, I am so sorry this has to be so hard and troubling! I guess,
first I would ask how your prego symptoms are doing? Any significant
change. I'm just hoping there is something that can give you some
reassurance. Try to trust that the previous IVIG is still trying to
do it's job and that Friday will be fine. I almost wish we could get
u/s when ever we wanted just for piece of mind.

Try to hang in there! We're here for you!

So sorry to hear of your nasty NK's, despite taking the IVIg. I think we would all worry if it were us--I know I would. Yes, perhaps testing at 6-7 days...
