Hi Lisa
Taking magnesium will up your platelets ..take 2-4 x 300 mg /day and then reduce it to 2 x300 mg/day when your platelets =300 (see Gina's post). Dont worry about having a break..use the time to bring your immune system up. You could try "immume support" available in most Aussie health shops which will up you white blood counts and contains reishi and astralagus extracts (which contain 1,3 Beta D glucan which makes the herceptin work better as well.)
cheers
