Aspirin & Lowered Counts

Hi Vera,
Yes, aspirin can lower counts. Previous to dx, Ron was taking 325mg daily and was taken off of that. His counts were holding good, and they decided he could try the 81mg daily to help off-set the symptoms (Flushing) when taking his Niaspan at night, but, I see his PLT were lower this week too. So, it was probably a combination of the aspirin and the chemo injections knocking them down.

Thanks for your post. I Also want to congratulate you on your transplant success! You are such an inspiration to so many people!!! Thanks for sharing your journey! And, I will keep you in my prayers for your continued restoration of health!!!

Hugs, Cindy
