(Thinking🤔) It's idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura~~

Hello🙂

I knew I had a bit of anemia, but I didn't think it was a big deal. Recently, I was advised to get a blood test because my complexion looked yellow or pale and unhealthy, so I went to a local hospital to get tested.

They told me to get a bone marrow test because all the red blood cell, white blood cell, and platelet counts are low.

You must have been very shocked and scared. They said there is a high possibility of leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome, or aplastic anemia.

So I had a bone marrow test.

The bone marrow is normal.

However, at my age, the cell fidelity should be around 50 percent, but I am told it is only between 11 and 20 percent.

I even got a genetic test just in case, and my genes are normal.

The test cost alone exceeded 1 million won.

Since the cause cannot be identified, it is idiopathic, and all blood cell counts are low, indicating pancytopenia. In particular, red blood cell and platelet counts are low.

Since it's not a bone marrow problem, there is no need for chemotherapy. I am prescribed and taking iron supplements, vitamins, and folic acid for three months.

Even though I take medication, I often feel dizzy, overwhelmed by chronic fatigue, and I sleep well.

I want to know what foods might be helpful, what healthy habits I should adopt, and if there are others in similar situations to mine~~~

Everyone, please take care of your health in the heat.
