NPlate for SAA
I began Nplate about 6 weeks ago. Today for the first time ever, my platelets rose from 16 to 24. My normal time between platelet transfusions is 9 days; it has been 2 1/2 weeks. I know it's too early to declare victory over one part of my medical quagmire, but it's about the most encouraging thing since I started down the path of MDS, etc. Let's hope for more good news!
