Good morning, @shels93 Aw, you’re very sweet. Yes, I am still here, vertical and ventilated as one of our fellow members says. ☺️

Oh goodness, your husband’s labs/transfusions schedule pretty much excludes much of anything else these days, doesn’t it. I know from personal experience how disruptive that is and it can also be disparaging. But for right now it’s a life saver! So hang in there.

Hopefully the BMBX will shed a light as to what’s going on. This abrupt decrease in platelets seemed rather sudden after being pretty stable over the past three years, albeit with lower than normal platelet levels. A new drop in platelets may not necessarily be related to his transplant. Did your husband have a recent illness or vaccinations?
