Denise, I just read your question about your husband's low platelets count. My husband is currently experiencing the same problem. Two wks ago, he took his 4th & last iv infusion of Rituximab. It helped "some," but didn't keep platelets steady. He is scheduled for bi-weekly blood tests & tomorrow is his scheduled blood draw. We will be anxiously awaiting the results. Dr says this is a result of a bad case of covid at the end of December 2022. He still is short breathed & tires so easily, plus coughs frequently. He is also diabetic type II. He's scheduled for a stress test soon. I hope to follow your info on here.

Even I had the same observation. Drop in platelets count has started only after COVID vaccinations and causing increased scarring of liver (Compensated Liver Cirrhosis). So, I stopped the vaccinations after second booster. Now my platelet levels are in the range of 120 (December 2024) whereas they used be in the range and even higher than 150 before the vaccination.
