Neuts going down

It's good you're in hospital in your home town. It sounds like the Mater is treating you right with the isolation, the diet and the Neupogen.
I am getting well looked after here. I mentioned about having Sustagen at home and I get given a jug every day.
Dr F gets a copy of the blood tests. My Physician Dr H is going to ring him this morning. Even though I've had 5 Neupogen injections yesterday the Neuts went from .16 to .10. I think I am to have blood today as HB was 72.

When I returned from Brisbane I put in paperwork to Travel Office as had paid for my own trip to Brisbane. Now I get a letter back to say thank you for your recent application but unsuccessful because treatment is available locally which of course is not correct. I don't know if letter (the run of the mill type) is referring to my request for money back or next Brisbane trip. If the former how come the return journey was approved or the latter why were the 1st 2 cycles approved ? I can't do much about it from hospital as not able to download Appeal Form here. I am annoyed about it.
