Hang in there mcgill! I've also got low platelets and that is my main struggle at the moment with MDS. My platelets go up and down all the time, and so does a healthy persons platelet count. Mine are on average between 20-30 but seem to be staying there. I get a lot of bruising because I'm a cluts! Always hurting myself... crumbs. I tell ya, my vacuum cleaner is my worst enemy! I just hurry around way too fast thats all.

This is a long road for the most of us. So make yourself comfy!

Take care,
Jules
