Went for my Nplate infusion this week and was pleased to finally see a platelet count above the normal. The count came back as 145x10*3/uL This was with the use of a Citrate Tube. The CBC results were 114 but the platelets are clumped which makes it impossible to get an accurate count hence the citrate tube draw. Anyway, it's nice to see something working. I started weekly Nplate infusions a little over a year ago and in February the hemato;ogist suggested changing the infusion to every other week since I had missed the last week because I was on vacation and the count after my return actually went up. Since then the counts got higher and higher with each new count. Is it possible that the weekly Nplates were over stimulating the production of platelets and my bone marrow could not keep up. I see the hematologist in 3 weeks and am thinking of asking if it would be safe to quit the Nplates and see what happens.
