Thanks, Marty. I have ordered organic papaya leaf tea and will mix it as Ragavan suggests. My excitement for this week was a "silent" heart attack. I missed it. Felt nothing at all. Felt great all week. A blood test revealed a high level of Troponins in my blood and they got all excited and kept me in hospital for 3 days doing various tests. I will learn the results this week. I see a platelet specialist tomorrow. Maybe he will have more words of wisdom. I am really happy to hear that you recommend papaya tea also and that it works. I had 9 platelets on Friday (normal level 150-450) and my hemoglobinhad dropped into the low 80's. This seems to be an ongoing battle as my lupus tries to kill my body one cell at a time.Wishing all the best to you! 18's~~~~~ Angie From: Marty Gartenberg <wa2...@gmail.com> To: cmlhope@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 24, 2015 8:24 AM Subject: Re: [CMLHope] Platelets Hi Angie, Please read this about the effects to not only your platelet counts but also your red cell count. Ragavan gave you some valuable advice but you need to find the best supplement that contains the best form of Papya leaf extract. By the way when I had my bone marrow transplant one of my friends got me some of it and it did work. Let me do some research and get back to you. In the meantime you must be extremely careful not to injure your self. don't walk around barefoot or even use slippers. It will not offer any protection if you should stub one of your toes. I know all about that because it happened to me. OK on to some research. By the way I am slowly starting to recover from the Staff infection in my lungs. I have a picc line and wear an infusion pump 24/7 for the next few weeks. I will get back to you 18's, Marty http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3757281/

I have given the method below. You can prepare it very easily. Or you can drink two spoons of papaya leaf extract in the morning. Procedure: Dry papaya leaves completely. Add cumin seeds and little black pepper and powder the dried papaya leaves. Keep it safe in a container. Add water to spoon full of papaya leaf powder and boil it. Filter it and drink warm. regards, Ragavan On Sun, May 17, 2015 at 6:33 PM, ANGELYN ESDERS <esd...@rogers.com> wrote: Thank you very much for your reply.I will try to find papaya leaf tea.I am in Canada...where are you?Angie From: Gopalsamy Ragavan <graga...@gmail.com> To: cmlhope@googlegroups.com Sent: Sunday, May 17, 2015 7:08 AM Subject: Re: [CMLHope] Platelets 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.

I am covered with big purple bruises and petechiae and look like I have been in a bar fight. Even a light scratch on my skin brings the blood to the surface. It is called Thrombocytopenia. My red cells also plummet and I had 6 blood transfusions last week.My confidence waivers a little as it seems they don't really know what to do about me. I have lots of complications. More specialists on the horizon, but every step forward is followed by 3 steps back. I am on massive prednisone for the moment.Can anyone share info on this?Angie in Canada....Gleevec pioneer since 2001-- -- [CMLHope] A support group of http://cmlhope.com ------------------------------------------------- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CMLHope" group.
