Hi, Paula.
It's good to see that Jorge's hemogloblin and platelet counts are going up. A sudden drop in any counts, like he has just had with his white count, is very unnerving, but it is not that unusual. I don't think that eating peanuts would cause a drop like this--if they were making him sick, his white count should have gone up a bit as his body tried to fight back. More likely, it is just a temporary fluctuation like we all have. It's a good idea to remain cautious while his counts are still low, so staying close to the doctors for a while longer seems reasonable to me.
Regards,
Ruth
