Thank you! Mine are in the low 500’s and he originally prescribed 1000 a day. After I though about it I decided not to take them until I saw him again which won’t be till the beginning of May.

If your platelets are only in the 500s I personally would not want to start with 1000 mg a day. Some people take 500 mg every other day or three days a week.

Did you start on a low dose aspirin to protect you from blood clots?
