Hi everyone

I am pregnant for the second time - (I miscarried in January this year). Through the blood tests taken at that time it was discovered that I had low platelet levels and as a result was diagnosed with an autoimmune disease called ITP (Immune Thrombocytopenia Purpura). Basically the platelets that my body produces are seen as foriegn and are consequently attacked. I have to have monthly monitoring blood tests. I am not sure if the time between tests needs to be reduced now that I am pg.

I was just wondering if anyone has ITP or knows someone with it. It would be great to hear of how your/their pg went.

Thanks
