I'd had only a 9 platelet level last night, so we started a bag of platelets at 5am.
After it was all in, my back started itching. I called the nurse and she observed hives, and gave me Benedryl through my port. That helped some but then came shortness of breath and new hives on my neck.
This attracts the attention of that flock of caregivers that Chemo Birders would know as the Great Blue Commotion.
Native to scrub habitats, the Great Blue moves fast, administering 50 units of hydrocortisone and calling for an in-room chest x-ray from this beauty, which I think is an ostrich of some sort:
