      I had Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma 20 years ago. As far as I know the only thing I'm left with is I have purpura very extreme on my hands and arms is this work possibly came from? And is there any solution for it?

    Prednisone will work if thrombocytopenia is idiopathic/autoimmune. If Plt count doesn’t come up (considerably), esp after transfusion than you should definitely question medication induced. Thank you so much for your great video! You are hilarious 🤣

      @@MedicosisPerfectionalis i just realized you commented recently did not know you were active on this video so just reposting my comment here if maybe you will see it
      im not a doctor/hematologist or student of science really at all... my cousin was admitted in the icu last weekend and i just found 2 days ago; they didnt know what it was but his spleen had previously been enlarged and he had dizziness nausea and vomited after taking zofran (a migraine medication). For some reason his platelet count dropped incredibly quick and his white blood cells or antibodies I guess were receiving the message from his spleen to attack his own red blood cells. they did 2pints worth of transfusions and they were entirely rejected, and they cant remove the spleen without him bleeding out. now i just got the data and his platelet count is very low like 10,000 low and hes losing his vision- the doctors dont know what it is and have very few options. and i know its worse than bad, I know theres not much more room for it to get worse Im just doing what i can to understand what it is even though I know im no doctor or specialist and that the team working on him will know the best course of action. That being said from talking with some professionals I know and doing a lot of reading I believe he has idiopathic thrombocytopenia and (AIHA) hemolytic anemia, which are attributable to a very rare autoimmune disorder called Evans syndrome... idk if im right but it looks like steroid medications can be used to suppress the immune system and decrease the production of antibodies after which I assume a transfusion can be attempted again? and if his blood levels/platelets are high enough and the immune system isnt destroying the new blood or at least not as fast they should be able to operate and remove the spleen?
      sorry for the long message and i really appreciated the video

    Have had decreasing platelets through the years (with exception of two years back when it went up to 175,000) in 68 y/o female.
    Current testing showed 124,000 accompanied by large bruise at blood draw site (first time that's happened). Thirteen days later it's still trying to get better, improving. It's the only bruise on my whole body. No petechial rashes. Nondrinker/nonsmoker with fatty liver (former carb lover). Albumin is high normal as well.
    Doctor diagnosed thrombocytopenia and is considering referral to hematologist...leukemia?
    Any thoughts?

    So weird I been consistently testing as low platelets over the past 3 years. More recently gynaecologist thought I was being abused when she saw crazy bruises all over my legs blood test Low platelet count she wanted me to see a hematologist but I brushed it off. I assumed the is whole time I inject Humira biologics it’s probably the case no worries. But I just got a report from 4 years ago by my rheumatologist which is Before I got diagnosed Before I started biologics he note Platelet count low. So this can only mean I’ve had low platelet counts this entire time. Went to get tested ytd she put in the needle to draw blood and my blood squirted all over my arm lol I was like ok platelets prob still low results today sure enough low. I have no idea whether this is even an issue to look into or not? Cause It usually varies between 70,000-140,000 so technically it’s nothing really right?

I’m 28 years old my platelet account is still usually around 90,000. I truly believe it all comes down to mindset for me. My platelet count and even hemoglobin count would drop because I would be fearful and anxious of life decisions such as career and relationships. I’ve just changed my mindset by being on the offensive by giving almost anything a go which I believe has reduced my chances of a very low platelet count.

    Thank you so much for this helpful video! My elderly mother (84) has a platelet count of 132/L with haematocrit very slightly above range at 0.478 and mean corpuscular volume also slightly above range at 103 fL and mean corpuscular haemoglobin also slightly above range at 33 pg and ferritin above range at 208 ug/L. I have absolutely no idea what this might mean. The GP (who ordered a massive amount of blood tests) has seen these results but did not even mention any of these out of range markers. Can anyone give me any idea of what these markers are indicating? If so, thank you hugely!

    how does steroids boost platelet production ? shouldnt it decrease platelet activity as thy inhibit arachidonic acid pathway and eventually block platelet function

      That’s a good question.
      There is a difference between platelet number and platelet function.

    Hi.
    I 6 months ago, my platelets count was about 64000, doctors said it is ITP, i didn't have signs when they said it. But in these days, I can see signs of ITP, bruises on my hands (Red to purple), bleeding from gum, nose and etc.
    Is it getting serious? Do those signs mean that my Platelets count is getting lower?

      It's a little low, but not worrisome as long as all lab parameters are fine.
      Since you mentioned that you had iron deficiency anemia, it's important to get your labs checked regularly as recommended by your doctor. I wish you the best!
