Blood draw while sick OK?? Dr. McCandless

[Guest guest]

No, I think you should go ahead if it takes him weeks to get over these things.

Almost everyone is sick right now. If fever gets to 101 degrees I think you

should wait, however, just because the stress on him of that plus getting the

blood is a lot for a little guy. I'm not worried about it affecting the blood,

just his comfort. Dr. JM

Blood draw while sick OK?? Dr. McCandless

Dr. McCandless.. we are scheduled for last blood draw for CBC and

for MM on Monday the 29th. Slater is sick with a cough that is

either virual or RSV that his sister is just getting over.I have the

same thing I think and it has lasted 2 weeks so far. I am fairly

certain he will still have this.. it takes him weeks to recover from

respiratory illnesses usually. Low grade fever with it also.

Will this be a problem with the samples we need to send to MM? And

we also are doing the Doctor's Data Stool on Monday.

Thanks!

We'll do.. thanks.. he is not wanting to eat which is VERY unusual

for him. Hopefully it will give us what we need and we'll definitely

go ahead with it. Thanks!
