And this went on from July till September. I was to have four lots of treatment so it took in about twelve weeks.

Four lots of three weeks cycle?

Yes. During that time I did have a very low platelet count.  I had some purply red spots come up which were just a few but I rang the unit and they said they would ring me back. And they contacted the chest consultant who asked if I could go in and they did a blood test there and then and my platelets had dropped right down to five. I'd been shopping the day before, I didn't think much to it and they, they asked the other patients there if they would mind if I was treated first because I needed urgent treatment which to me again I was thinking, “Oh do I?” Not knowing much about platelets, perhaps I should have done. And I had the treatment on the Friday and I had to go in each day over the weekend and have the treatment and my platelets went up. But again they had a bed available for me should I need to be hospitalized.
