Re: Advice please-possible bone marrow mets

Oh, Ellie, this just sucks! Seriously! I will pray there is another explanation for the anemic platelets. Be careful with Fish oil and vit E as you do not want to get a bleed going. Any nosebleeds? I found a good b-complex helpful with my slow to recover platelets post chemo.

When is your aspiration scheduled? We want to cover you with prayer that day. Come to think of it, my counts did not fully rebound until after I completed Herceptin.

You hang in there, Ellie Girl!
