Good morning.... My mom not only has the ITP, she has also just been added with Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia... Has anyone had the same happen to them and how were both treated together? She has been given a ton of blood and platelets and a series of predizsone. Doctor doesn't know his next plan, so we are worried.... Thanks for any advice.

Hi yes this has happened to me also. My consultant says the treatment is relatively the same for both conditions response varies for each condition. In my case haemolytic anaemia has responded better to treatment than the tip at present
