Hi JeriM,
Be careful that you are getting enough iron and magnesium in your diet. This is hard to do if you are on a vegan diet, have low platelets and are pre-menopause. Have your serum ferritin checked every now and then to ensure that you don't have a deficiency.
My doctors were pretty insistent that I eat meat (organic, grass-fed  ), but I understand that isn't for everyone.
