June 19, 2010  Hi Everyone, It has been so long since I have posted that I guess you all thought I had died!   I’m still here, alive and loving every minute of my life. 

There really isn’t much to talk about except that I went to my doctor yesterday and my platelets were at 717. down from 807  just three months ago.   I still think that my platelets rise and fall in relation to my stress mode.  I try not to get stressed out but sometimes it is almost unavoidable.  However, I feel great and most of the time I don’t think of my ET at all!

I want to mention that my doctor told me that they are testing a new drug for ET and hopfully I will be one of the ones to participate.  That has not been firmed up yet but maybe.  I will pass along any information I get on the subject.  My next appointment will be 3 months from now.

Thanks  to all the ones writing in comments.  Every letter is helpful so please keep them coming.

Love to all of you and GOOD HEALTH!
