Great Carla, hang in there. I read that young people like yourself have a much better chance of having ITP go into complete remission in the first 6 months. I was diagnosed 1 month ago with platelets of 1 I am 66 and also just had a stent put in in March. So I was on blood thinner and aspirin when diagnosed. So I have two problems. The ITP and keeping my blood from clotting. It is hard to stay positive especially for someone my age but you are young and have that going for you. You will beat this.

Great to hear .. was in similar situation before .. lots folks in this forum gave me the strength.. and it really helped to be positive and best to focus on other aspects as well - healthy diet , prayers, activities that helps you relax and reduce stress and anxiety I was 40 when had itp and now in short term remission.. and so anything is possible ..
