The doctor called me at 8am this morning. After last week's tests they suspected I had an asymptomatic UTI?! and low LDH levels. The internet says that, lactic acid dehydrogenase is "an enzyme that helps produce energy. It is present in almost all of the tissues in the body and its levels rise in response to cell damage." "It’s very rare for a person to have low LDH levels" and "normal LDH levels range from 140 units per liter (U/L) to 280 U/L." And apparently after my second round of tests, I have neither a UTI nor low LDH (186). I'm totally normal and I'll be starting my filgrastim injections not this, but next Friday at the New York Blood Center.
