Re: Dealth Risk Found from Anemia Drugs

The first article on platelets was very interesting. Glad this discussion was brought back up. If I read the article correctly, platelets could possibly play a role in metastais. When I started Navelbine in November my platelets started to rise, as my platelets went up, so did my tumor markers. My platelets were the highest they have been in over four years. I stopped Navelbine three weeks ago, and my platelets have come back down into the 200 range. I wonder if the increase of platelets were aiding my bone metatasis?
