Betty,
I have had low platelets, in the 50-60K range. I started trying taking 1/2 fresh pineapple, juiced in a juice extractor each day, and my platelets have now been hovering about 80K. It might be worth a try.
There are several posts on MDS Patient Forum an example is the above. Dr Raza who treate ONLY MDS subsribes says FRESH pineapple juice helps plateletts and it has helped me.
