I'm trying to think of what might be affecting your platelets so quickly...Have you been putting anything different into your body? Many foods, alcohol, supplements, and medications can lower platelets. Have you tried to google a list to see if there's anything you are doing different? You can also look on Thrombocytopenia and other low platelet support websites
Also, are you vegan? I think Vegans can only get their B12 through nutritional yeast, everyone else gets it from animal products.
Are you on probiotics? Maybe they would help your stomach absorb better if its imbalanced due to everything else..
We are here for you!! ((HUGS))
Linda, so sorry for such a late rreply!!! Thanks for such a kind message to me. Nothing has changed recently except stopping the budesonide completely. I am not a vegan but good thought!! I was told not to take probiotics but will look into again! Thanks again, Laura
