My father was again hospitalized on 14/4/2012 due to high grade fever and low blood countss he is stil in hospital,recd 3 u nits of blood and 3 unit of sdp platlets. he is also being given antibiotics for fever/infection. he started revolde 50 mg daily along with thalidomide 100 mg daily. Revolade was started on 2nd april 2012. However till now their is no improvement in the platelets, however we have noticd a lot of flactuation in his plateletes counts either due to medicine effect or due to false reporting by labs. Doctor has now advised to inc the dosage of revolade to 75mg. We have also noticed his blood and platelets re not maintai ing or increasing theyare on downfal. Atpresent the min isue are fever and low platelets. Kindly send in ur valuable inputs. Regards, neel
