Hi @tyson1221 You’re wondering what your treatment options might be for low platelets besides a bone marrow transplant. That’s not really a question that can be answered at this point. It will depend on the type of platelet disorder you have and your symptoms.
Right now you’re really in a great position, not feeling any symptoms. But it looks like your doctor is being pro-active in trying to find the possible cause for your continued dip in platelets.
I think we first chatted back in November about your low platelets and with your doctor wanting a bone marrow biopsy. That’s 3 months ago, so if you are still experiencing the dip in blood levels, it’s a good idea to follow through with that biopsy. That will give your doctor a good overall picture of your bone marrow health and possibly why you’re having the platelet issue.
Do you have the biopsy scheduled?
