@nypara66 Thank you for responding. I am getting a breast biopsy; just another stress that likely makes my platelets whacky. I hope to stabilize on a dose that I can live with so that other concerns can be addressed. So grateful to be able to hear from others on this forum. I know that I’m not alone.

@mumblipeg I had breast biopsies in both tatas. I was lucky it wasn’t cancer. A few years later the lumps grew and I had them surgically removed. Early detection is the key and yes, all of that can mess with your platelets so take it one step at a time. Good luck and stay positive!
