No wonder my platelets are great! (I had a piece of Hershey's

'Special Dark' in my mouth as I was reading. I LOVE chocolate!)

Actually, when I got past the word 'chocolate' (yum!!!) and read the

article more closely, it shows that chocolate inhibits

clotting/platelet function somewhat. However, if you're not a

hemophiliac or have really low platelets, it's probably good for the

cardiovascular system the same way a low dose of aspirin is, or an

occasional glass of red wine. So see, it's STILL good for you. And of

course everyone knows it has antidepressant properties. Works for me!

And my platelets ARE great!

I wonder if it helps the ITP, hope not. That way I

have a reason to not like chocolate....now I can

stomach white one, if I have too. :-) What about the

wine? Actually I like Dos Equis (sp) on tap.

LOL Alley....I'm a big tea drinker....and I like chocolate of

course....now if we can find an article on the benefits of ice

cream....then I'LL have it made. I tried the link you provided for

chat....signed up etc etc and then when the screen popped up it was just

blank. Hmmm, wonder what's up with that. Will try again. How you

doing? Are you back on inteferon? Or are you doing the combo? I've

lost track, that darn brain fog....sometimes feels like I'm in pea soup

or something.

Hey Carol,

The java chat window takes a while to load on the delphi sites, and

sometimes they don't " catch " , dunno why. It 's nice to have someone to talk

to when I can't sleep.

Yes I'm on Interferon, but this is for the melanoma. I finished combo in

april 01.

Good to hear from you )

Wow, have not heard that name for a long time, and yes

I am. Did you know that the Author of McGee

was D Mc and he lived in Sarasota FL? Just

south of where I lived and was from St Pete FL you go

over the Skyway Bridge to get to Sarasota, he even

mentions the Skyway, St sburg along with other

places. . Mc supposedly wrote a book where

McGee was killed off to be published when he died, but

I have not seen it and he's be gone for awhile.. Also

his stories were based on true events.

I read Mc like crazy as a kid. Between hubby and I, we must have

every copy of his books in the attic.
