Well, that is interesting because I was wondering just the other day if CBD might help me, then I just forgot about it. So, your platelets were 495 when you stopped the CBD, but what was your platelet count when you were taking the CBD? You said high end of normal, what is high end of normal? Just trying to see how much it might have worked. Do your platlet numbers fluctuate much anyway or are they pretty much the same every time you get a blood draw?

Today they were 497. Last time they were 427 that is when I was taking CBD. (I had only taken it for 12 days) The time before that they were 475. The highest they have been were 763 and that was before I had started taking HU. I am thinking seriously about taking it again just to see what they are when I go back on the 30th of this month for another blood draw. I could tell right off the bat that the hematologist was not in favor of the CBD. My daughter and husband were with me on that visit and they both caught his remark that CBD would not help. I personally do not like the idea of using CBD but if it proves to me that it is bringing my platelets back down to a normal range I would take it all the time.
