Thanks for the response

Thank you for responding. I was diagnosed with AA back in 2011 and had ATG treatment in 2012 with helped my red and whites return to normal but my platelets struggled to rise. They did get up to 78,000 but have since fluctuated from 15,000-50,000 for the past few years with my red and white staying in normal range. So he only took promacta for a few months? I thought you would basically have to take it everyday for the rest of your life. I head of bad side effects of it as well but I’m glad to here that he had none!
