I'm a mom of 7 and I love the gospel of Jesus Christ! It's how I survive everyday in this crazy world and where I turn for peace and hope. I'm non-judgemental and I love everyone. I'm open minded and I love gathering "misfits" in my home to share our perfectly crazy chaos and teach unconditional love.

Hi, my name is starryangelfish961. I'm here because I want to learn more about having the disease for a long time and have neutropenia now

Update:

I found out that chicken soup can help me. While it does not increase white cells, it does slow down the neutrophils1 (the type of white blood cells2 I'm deficient in) keeping them in the body longer to do their work.

So, while I wait for the Sho-saiko-to herbs3 to work to increase neutrophil production4 in my bone marrow, I can use chicken soup to help the ones I do have in my body to their work more efficiently.

So, I bought 30 cans of chicken soup to eat one a day. I'm also sharing a tablespoon of the broth from each can with each of the cats; because, they have symptoms of having the Fusarium in their sinuses and they refuse to eat Fish Oil (which is the best thing to boost cat's immune systems). My cats are weirdos.

I'm also going to purchase some Thyme Essential Oil5 to use when I run out of Sho-saiko-to herbs. I'm hoping that, by the time I run out of the herbs, they will have done a good enough job to get me out of neutropenia and, then, I can kill the Fusarium with the help of the improved immune system.

Recovery from neutropenia is essential in treating Fusarium.6

Now, I have an improved plan!

When reaching out to a cousin about my life-threatening illness, I was met with her text response, “Bigger problems. I have HIV”. I responded in a kindly manner offering moral support and received no further response. It's more than a week later. I know she is probably scared. So am I. However, I was quite annoyed with the one-up-manship; especially, because I know she is misinformed. Dying has never been a competition, as far as I know. Let's look at the most current scientific facts:

With the right treatment and care, people with HIV can live a normal lifespan.

Life expectancy for people living with HIV

VS

Analyzing prognostic factors in 84 hematologic patients with invasive fusariosis, the 90-day probability of survival was 0% if patients had persistent neutropenia

When someone reaches out to you about their life-threatening disease, get your facts straight before being unkind, even if you have your own life-threatening disease. Dying is NOT a pissing match.

How low must your white blood cell count be before you start getting injections to assist? I have Neutropenia with Absolute lymphopaenia but am not receiving any treatment for it and have not been asked to stop my immune suppressants. #Neutropenia #AutoimmuneDisease #Methotrexate

I usually have a temperature around the early 37. I am feeling very unwell, hot and cold, occasional body shakes, sneezing. My temperature has been between 36.5 - 36.9 the past few days. Now that isn't considered a low temperature but is from my normal. I know if I go to the Dr they'll just say it isn't low but I was wondering if anyone had experienced this? I feel a bit fluey but before when I had flu my temperature has become high. I don't have a cough so I don't think it's Covid, also I'm double vaccinated and am hardly near anyone. I have mild neutropenia and a mild heart condition. I also take medication for depression and anxiety.

I am in the midst of feeling extremely down and helpless. This past year 2019 was a hot mess family wise and physically. I found my chronic pain previously related to solely to fibromyalgia increasing. I was always told that fibro pain is not progressive and I started experiencing other symptoms. Since August I was told that I have unspecified neutropenia have dealt with a 30lb weight loss (and counting) in a matter of months, lack of appetite, pain, pain and more pain. I have had to have an endoscopy and a colonoscopy to see if there was anything else more "nefarious" going on. During the course of all of this and doing my own research, I brought to the attention of my doctor's that I would like to be screened for EDS hypermobility type, as I feel that the symptoms I have can be related to that not to mention that my brother and mother have also exhibited signs too. As I am in the midst of this screening process, I have had to go to opthamology and cardiology for an echocardiogram, which, incidentally found that I have aortic root and ascending aorta dilation. I don't see the specialist until February and my mind is going crazy because  I am worried that I can drop dead at any flipping moment!

Happy Birthday Poem

On this day,
15 years ago,
God gave you to me
To watch you grow.
I looked down at you
And your bright beaming eyes
And thanked God up above
For they were as blue as His skies.
And when you smiled
My heart melted with bliss
From the warmth of His love
I felt with one single kiss
Each and every year
I’ve watched you grow older
And when your body wasn’t well
I was reminded to rest faith on God’s shoulder.
I listen to your thoughts
Filled with love, hope, and life
God nudges me softly
And I forget all my strife.
So even though it’s your birthday
And it’s your day to get presents
You’ve given me more, Mya dear,
And that’s belief in Gods presence
