I haven't posted in a while because of PLATELETS. I had a triple dose of chemo a few months ago, and it put me in a tail spin. Since then, my platelets have been seriously low. I've had SEVERAL blood and platelet transfusions and a few stays in the hospital because of it to. My CBC indicates a platelet range of 150 - 450. As of yesterday, mine was 24. If it drops tomorrow, I will be off to the hospital for another transfusion. I have a throbbing headache. I am learning this is a sign (FOR ME) that it is time again. I was told 10 is the cut off, but at 56, I had a severe nose bleed (7 1/2 hours long and a 2 days stay in the hospital) a few weeks ago. I am scheduled to have a bone marrow biopsy on Monday to see what is going on. I have had ALOT of chemo and this can happen. I have a dear friend that had 7 transfusions before her bone marrow finally kicked in.
