Lame-tastic!! Sorry to hear that.

I've been doing some serious studying (Hematology is now my "third" major) and researching... I'm trying to come up with natural ways to produce the same effects (a higher platelet count). I've got a few theories I've been tossing about, but nothing solid yet...... Is anyone else doing this?

If I figure something out.. I'll be sure to let you know. :)

Hang in there! I went from 40mg to 30mg and my count dropped a little.. 38 to 31, but I'm saying F YOU Presnisone! It's not worth it for me.... so I'm at 20g this week.
