That’s a shame, my platelets range from 650 to 800 I was allergic to aspirin and clopidogrel that I was put on, resisting other drugs at moment as no t sure body will cope but agreed with haematologist (who won’t see me any more unless I have a biopsy) that if platelets go above 800 I will go back and see him. My doctor has agreed 3 monthly FBC which I monitor. I have been trying to manage symptoms with diet and homeopathy for 5 years and feel ok but I am not reducing platelets so I know at some point I will have to try other drugs.
