New Lows

I got an update from my OB and Hematologist yesterday. The hematologist called to tell me that my iron and protein levels were also low. She wants me to increase my protein intake and start taking an iron supplement. They called me at a crazy time so I failed to ask what the levels were. I'm hoping this is just a reflection of my diet. The OB called later in the day to tell me what my most recent platelet count was. It has now dropped to 72k (it was 80k last week.) The levels are being communicated back to the hematologist. And the hematologist isn't going to consider treating me until my platelet count drops to around 50k. I still have to go for weekly blood draws until further notice.
