Hey guys, I'm really sorry I didn't make it today- I got up and felt
like I had been hit by a cement truck (that was full of elephants
encased in cement). And I'm sure you heard about my hip? It feels
much better now, but still is very sore.
So yesterday in ballet I learned three things:
1) I have weak pathetic rotator cuffs.
2) Doing (whatever it was I did) to my hip hurts like a mothereffer.
Have you ever been hit in the nose, where you just start instantly
crying? That's what it felt like, but in the hip... somewhere.
3) Try not to do intense exercise for a day or so after giving blood.
I honestly thought I was going to puke/ faint. bad idea :) presyncope
everywhere.
Anyways, I'm not sure how clear my fq was, but if you guys want I can
present it on Monday? I spent a lot of time on it, so feel fairly
clear on it. Gimme a call if you have any questions!!! And thanks for
the concern!

Hey Dara,
just for your benefit, for my FQ, I basically summarized all the
information I extracted from Robbins' Pathology on Leukemias and
compiled it into a chart.
I also talked about the three main leukemogenic causes, which are
benzene (sup China?), radiation (sup North Korea, Australia?) and
genetics (sup Caucasian males?).
Other main points I think you should just take from my detailed chart
is that there are at least six clinical signs which present in
leukemias (i.e. the splenomegaly, the anemia, the thrombocytopenia).
So I thought probably if they asked, list six clinical signs in a
leukemia.
Also, there are about three investigations or tests you can do to
diagnose leukemia specifically to its type, which are
immunophenotyping, blood smears, and genetic screening, on top of
finding those clinical signs, and patient's symptoms.
Fran also thought knowing about the four main types of leukemia, which
in a broad definition are basically the acute and chronic types of
lymphoid and myeloid leukemias. And then you just have a good idea of
which cells in the hematopoeitic lineagues are affected.
So with that info, you can feel like you were at Thursday PBL in
spirit! Heal up and rest!
