Hi all,
DX Aug 1, 2017
25 months on Dasatinib, 50mg and 70mg alternating days. Have maintained MMR for last 7 months. Last PCR three months ago 0.0451
CBC numbers have mostly been in normal range except for platelets which have been in the 100 - 110 range for the last year.
Just had CBC yesterday and all numbers in normal range except for platelets which dropped to 51.
Coincidentally I've had a nasty chest cold. My Onc said he will retest CBC when I go in next week to get latest PCR results.
In response to the platelet drop I was doing a little reading and was surprised to read that in addition to grapefruit, fish oil is associated with increased plasma levels and is to be avoided when taking Dasatinib.

Hoping the link I pasted above is hot.
I've been taking fish oil occasionally since I was diagnosed. I am wondering about fish oil and the platelet drop.
Any thoughts?
Thanks to all.
