Managing Chemo With Low Platelets?
AI-generated title
Hi everyone! I am new here and live in the United Kingdom (London).
I was first diagnosed with multiple myeloma in 2016, went into remission after chemotherapy and transplant but now relapsed and back to chemotherapy again.
Unfortunately, this is not working well for me now as my very low platelets blood 🩸 is disturbing the process. As at now my platelets count is below 30 and my consultant does not want to continue the chemotherapy when is below 24. The normal platelets count of a normal human being is supposed to be: 1500-4500.
You can see that this number of mine is with great concern. Traditionally, I have a history of low platelets. To cloth during bleeding is just not there and I fear this could even send blood to my brain and have stroke. Platelets transfusion was done ones but only pushed it up by 13 points and went back low the next week.
Can any one help me?
