Promacta for low platelets,

spectda
My doctor is trying to get me approved for taking promacta for low platelets (45,000). I've read the warnings. How serious is this stuff? Have we had anyone on the forum that had a serious adverse event from taking it?
Thanks everyone

Dave,
I had days like that.  Horrible days now and then.  It's monday, the day will soon end. Hopefully Tuesday will be better.

Thanks Judy, I've barely moved all day. I don't know how people get through these bad days when they are working. I took my neupogen yesterday and my interferon today same as last week, but maybe the two so close to each other are overwhelming my body.
