Platelets tend to jump around a bit. Has he changed medications? Any GVHD? How's he feeling otherwise? Its good he's getting out by the transplant specialists - hopefully just a bump in the road.
Best wishes,

The level was 108 beginning of April and yesterdays lab it was 48. Last week it was 45 so not too much lower. He had a haplo transplant from my brother in Nov. 2015. They reduced his anti-fungal and decreased his tacro last week. He feels fine! No unusual fatigue in the past month. We get the results tomorrow from the biopsy. I hope its just a slight bump in the road. The doctor thinks it could be a virus or the MDS is back! UGH waiting is awful.
