started nPlate
Hi All, last week I got my first Nplate injection of 500mcg, followed by another yesterday, same dose. No side effects noted , but platelets had increased from 26K to 33 from the first dose. Somehow they went from 19 before we started to 26, but the dr felt it was time to start! They do labs before so next week hopefully we'll see another increase. The plan is to increase the dose to 1000mcg. There is so much information online that it is hard to not try and micromanage all of this, especially being a retired MDwith an RN wife..but we must after all our research and discussion finally rely on the judgement of the Dr, who is part of a center of excellence team here in NYC. Still am feeling good, keeping active and being very careful not to fall, especially with all the snow we've had. Hope you're all doing well.
Best Regards, McGill54
