ITP and Prothrombin Gene Mutation

Anyone else out there who has both ITP and prothrombin gene mutation (Factor II)? I have always had a low platelet counts (normally between 80 - 110). After several miscarriages I asked for testing and found out that I also have prothrombin gene mutation and that I will need to inject daily with heparin next time I am pregnant. I'm just wondering if there's anyone else out here with both these disorders and whether they had a successful pregnancy? Thank you :-)

I just wanted to wish you the best of luck. I don't know anything about that gene mutation, but I wish you a healthy pregnancy and easy delivery next time around!
