Well, after 6 months, papaya leaf extract is seemingly letting me down.

I try to be clear on this, so, I just raised my platelets but not in the impressive way I have in the past. I only know by my numbers, and, while I just doubled my numbers, they were very low, so going to take dexamethasone. I have avoided this for 6 months, but can't deny the papaya leaf extract is not working as well right now, for whatever reason. Maybe the body has figured out how to fight it, bad batch, can't mix it as much with food, I don't know.

Never mind, platelets came back up extraordinarily with dexamethasone and papaya leaf extract, in one week. I have seen the dex not work on its own, so I give the credit more to the papaya leaf extract, that I mixed (pills with food) with less food, than I have been lately. Will say that it seems that the papaya leaf extract and dexamethasone do work pretty well together. Numbers came up by almost 50 fold, since my number was only 8, last week.
