So I have had a couple of blood tests since first I blogged about the ITP thing. One recorded a drop to 26 and the latest has recorded a rise whereby the platelet count is currently at 32. this is still a long way off 150!Whilst on the phone to the hospital they told me to reduce my steroid intake again which is good and there now seems to be an end to that treatment and they also told me that they are looking into another line of treatment that will boost production of my platelets. This will either be by tablet or injection. I guess I will have to wait until the specialist appointment on Monday to know whether they will pursue this course of treatment with me or not.
In the meantime please pray for energy levels and clarity of thought as I do all I need to do this week.
