Smile More information on Promacta

Hello again,

I had more blood counts done on April 22nd. When I started Promacta my platelets were dropping about 6-8 per week. After a month the drop stopped and last week the Plt count went from 48 to 62. My other bloodlines went up modestly too. This week platelets jumped to 83 but the WBC and Hemo both went down. We are celebrating the platelets and hoping for more improvement next week.

Feeling very tired and fighting an infection so not sure what is related to what. Happy with the Promacta in the short run but not sure about long term effects.

Anyone else with results on this drug?

Stay positive.
Sally D
