Platelets
Hi Joe,
Thank you for the kind words! I feel fine thank you - I am still responding after 21 months with Thalidomide + Prenisone.
I can see that Neil has answered your question about platelets.
Infections often decrease all counts and if they manage to treat your Dad's infections his counts will probably increase. Is he getting Neupogen or a similar drug for his low white blood cells?
Remember that many drugs for example all painkillers can decrease platelets.
Kind regards
Birgitta-A
72 yo, dx MDS Interm-1 2006, supportive therapy with transfusions, Neupogen injections and Desferal + Exjade for iron overload until 2010. Since then Thalidomide + Prednisone with good effect.
