Hi Glitterandlace,
You know bromelain belong to the drugs that keep platelets from clumping which can cause an increased risk of bleeding. Other drugs with this effect are garlic and omega3.

When our platelets are low we can get small bleedings from the mouth and nose. Then we can bruise more easily and get petechia (small bleedings in the skin).

Hope your platelets will increase!
Kind regards
