I have problems with platelet count. Diagnosed in 2012 Started with Gleevec. Now with Sprycel. With Sprycel, platelet counts go down. Started with 140mg per day and now taking 50mg per day. One moth of Sprycel medication and two months rest for platelet recovery. This is how current medication is going on. I take papaya leaf tea everyday to improve platelets.
