Hi brigitta,

Thanx for responding. Good that u have respondend well to thalidomide and predisone.

Is platelet transfusion recommened or required at lower counts i mean like 12000 or 20000 , if there is no physical symoptom of bleeding. My father as such do not have any kind of bleeding or purpura at lower count of 20000, but sometimes when he scratches his arm cos of itching, he gets red spots.

Kind Regards Neel
