My Father has non lymphoma in stage 4 and his platelets are around 39000 and they still are doing chemo is this wise?

Hi grace,

I'm so sorry your dad is dealing with this.    I don't know specifics on platelet levels, but I'm hopeful others will have some advice for you.  Have you considered calling your dad's doc and having him/her explain it to you?  Be vocal about your concerns!
