Hi Dick,
You know before I was dx with MDS I often used alternative drugs with good results like echinacea for infections, cranberry juice for cystitis and so on. Now when my platelets are low (last count 42) I always google the name of the drug + platelets.
As a matter of fact most drugs that are good for peoples health are bad for patients with low platelets because they increase the bleeding and prevent arteriosclerosis.

Green tea and grape seed extract should be avoided by patients with low platelets. Perhaps your platelets are OK
. Then you only get the positive effects of green tea and grape seed extract.
Kind regards
