Great news! If you're still on the Prednisone, they might get even higher. Let's hope this fixes the problem and that you never have to go through this again.

Thank you for telling us. This is good news indeed!

Let us know if they stay up. I took the 40 pill-Dex. It hurt my stomach but did raise my platelets to 126 from 32(000). In 4 weeks they crashed again back to the 40's. Seems like a mountain we climb to the top and then back down again at the bottom. Good luck!
