Does anyone know of anywhere in the U.S. that performs the indium screening test? My hemo says it's officially "not recommended here.
I had a splenctomy 8 months ago, with no positive results, and now they've discovered an accessory spleen, and want to yank that out too. I've been on various steroids, ivig, rituxan, danazol, and am now approaching the highest dose of nplate, with counts stil hovering at 10 and below, but am not anxious

Yesterday was results day.. a mixed bag
So I went back to Papworth yesterday to get my results of recent tests, have been left with mixed feelings really. CT scan showed no worsening since previous scan - air trapping and atelectasis with the obvious lung reduction from scoliosis but no evidence of bronchiectasis thankfully :) LFT's showed

20 mo old diagnosed with ITP
My 20 month old son was diagnosed with ITP a few weeks ago. He had IVIG treatment and we were told this is a common disease and would resolve on its own. Here we are back in the hospital for another IVIG and dangerously low platelets. We are so confused and it's difficult to understand what went wrong

I had to do a risk assessment with our HR officer before I came back and it was decided then that if I was struggling or could feel myself becoming ill I was to inform my manager and arrange to take annual leave to rest and pull it back.
