So far, so good

"T" plus 3 and he's got some diarrhea and fatigue but much less than is normal for this stage. Is it the Miller luck? Will it last?? Who knows? But we're grateful (and perhaps a little bored). It's still early in the process.

What we expect: Gil's white blood cells should drop to zero in the next few days. He may get infections which will be treated with antibiotics. By day "T" plus 10 his white blood count should be rising but he may need transfusion of red blood cells.

There is no such thing as "normal". There is just your experience.
