Hi Pray for my Dad and Linda,
I wanted to respond regarding platelets. I won't go into detail here as I have in other posts that you can read. My husband Don started Promacta (eltrombopag) at National Institututes of Health in Bethesda, Md. in March, 2011 and has had a great response considering he had been transfusion dependent since 1/09. He hasn't needed any platelets since last spring and only one red cell transfusion in Oct. My posts are under "clinical trials". If you have any questions please feel free to e-mail me at shcalvert3@aol.com.
God Bless and best of luck!
Sally
