48 is definitely about the same thing as 50. Hopefully they won't hold you to an arbitrary fencepost if you are doing generally well otherwise. I would also be fighting to not increase the dose in the hopes of achieving some stability. Keep us posted and hang in there!

Sounds great. Hopefully you will continue with counts in that range!

Mrs B~ You are in the perfect sweet spot right around 50. Hope it holds steady! :) I get weekly labs and somehow mine got lost this week- arg. I think my counts were low so maybe just as well to not know- I don't want to raise my dose either.

Hi, so sorry about the lost response. Same thing happened to my daughter 4 years ago. Fortunately Nplate became available as self-administered and that has been working for her ever since (fingers crossed).

Last 2 counts  49 then 50, nice and stable. Haemo has given me a document to read regarding the PRN1008 trial.
