Repeat Labs
As with many who have SMA I’m difficult to draw blood from. That’s why the pre-Spinraza labs are my least favorite part. I was actually excited this time they got it in two pokes. Unfortunately I got a call from the doctors office that they would like to repeat the blood work before my injection. I’m not exactly sure why, I suppose I should’ve asked. From the test results on MyChart I see my Prothrombin Time was 11.8 and standard is 9.1-10.9 sec and the INR is 1.2 when the standard is .9-1.1 INR. Of course that’s Greek to me, but we’ll see what repeat labs show. Fingers crossed they’ll get it on the first poke and get the results they’re looking for. Has anyone else had to repeat the blood work?
