Hi Heather , good news for you regarding your platelets I hope you remain stable on your drug combo. And that you are getting over the shock of your unexpected surgery and making a good recovery. I trust you need to go easy and be kind to yourself for a time , how long before you can start to live fully again ?

As you say Thank goodness we have our wonderful NHS , I wouldn't be here now without their care, skill and dedication sometimes against the odds.

Regards - Chris
