Platelets

Charo and Marlene,
My platelets are falling, now at 22 so according to the trend, I'm predicting before I fly they will be somewhere around 16 and going lower after every blood test. My doctor said that platelets <10 will cause internal bleeding, so he wants to raise my plt counts before I fly.

I will get a transfusion on Thursday, then fly off on Saturday, so I guess I will make it through the flight. Once there, I'll prepare myself for the flight back!

Anti bacterial wipes, check.
Mask, check.

This forum is great. Thank you.

Meri
