Blood results

I just got John's blood test results:

White cell count, hemoglobin, hematocrit, MCV, RDW, Platelet Count, Iron levels, and Lead levels were all fine.

His red cell count was slightly low at 3.87, with a normal range of 3.90 to 5.30.

MCHC was slightly high at 35.6, with a normal range of 33.4 to 35.5.

His Keppra level was 9, where the range is 5-30, so he's still on a really low does of that.

Felbatol was 79 ug/mL, with a reference range of 30-60. So, he's on a LOT of Felbatol. We have already talked about lowering this a little, and I suspect we'll be advised to start that reduction shortly.

So, outside of the high Felbatol (which was absolutely no surprise to us), everything looks pretty good. We're happy to see the lead and iron levels checking out fine.
