NPlate for SAA
 

I began Nplate about 6 weeks ago. Today for the first time ever, my platelets rose from 16 to 24. My normal time between platelet transfusions is 9 days; it has been 2 1/2 weeks. I know it's too early to declare victory over one part of my medical quagmire, but it's about the most encouraging thing since I started down the path of MDS, etc. Let's hope for more good news!

Congratulations, Sue. That's great news.

How is your energy level?

My energy is still low. It must be related to one of the diseases and not my RBC. But then I have roof leaks all over the house, so much of my day is spent swapping out buckets and running the towels through the dryer. Oh, and did I mention the cat that won't use the litterbox?

Wouldn't it be great if the Nplate was truly working?
