Welcome Saz. Sounds like you've been through a lot and good news your platelets have dropped down from the millions to 800. I had a hysterectomy 19 years ago way before being diagnosed with ET. I have had surgery since then with ET and things went just fine. The Drs. knowing our situation helps them to use the precautions necessary for successful outcome. Glad you found us here and keep posting and let us know how you are. BTW - where are you from and what is your age. Take care and again, welcome.
