Nicky has been to the Haematologist

[paulinemjc]

Nicky has had his appointment with the Haematologist, it was neither good not bad. The haematologist is getting in touch with cardiologist at Alder Hey Children's Hospital in Liverpool to ask him if there is anything he wants him to do for Nicky as the problems with his very high blood count are caused by his heart/lung condition and Nicky is well know to the cardiology department there. He is willing to do a venesection if the cadiologist ask him to but isn't really very keen as it won't be nice for Nicky due to his lack of useable veins.
If any of you would like to learn more about Eisenmenger syndrome there are a number of informative sites on the web.

Yes Jackie, Spencer and Nicky both have Eisenmenger syndrome along with DS and other medical problems. I know the Tutty's quite well and Spencer gives me some hope for Nicky's future.
