Promacta long term

Hello Sally,

Thank you for your positive reply. It seems your husband has really benefited from the Promacta drug. At the moment my blood counts are pretty good and I'm celebrating avoiding a full blown relapse. Feel so grateful.

My local doctor after consulting with my Stanford doctor wants me to stop the Promacta at 3 months, next week. I know they are both very aware of the side effects.

I'm staying on the Prograf (immunosuppressant) for now and praying for continued good results.

Wishing you and your husband the best.

Sally
