Thank you for your responses and suggestions
Angie- I believe they have looked into ITP as well but I think since I didn't have a good response with the first transfusion they stopped thinking it was ITP. They don't want to give me any more transfusions because they are seriously considering bone marrow transplant even though they don't have an exact diagnosis yet. I did read your story, and I did have a lupus test done and it also came out negative, but after reading your story I think i am wanting to be tested again.
Cathy- so once your husband went off gluten did his counts go up?
I am going to give a gluten free diet a try, I'm sure it's healthier and it cannot hurt you. How long does it take to see results once you start a gluten free diet? Is gluten in all breads and carbs? I've been counting calories and watching what I eat, and I've noticed that 50 percent of my daily diet are carbs.
