Thank you to every one that replied to my post. Things have been so crazy since being discharged we rushed my sister back the hospital Sunday as she had another uncontrollable bleed, was very scary. The docs told us her platelets were 18 when we left Friday and they had gone back down to 6 when we arrived. After the most awful experience of being pricked and prodded trying to get a cannula in she was given another bag of platelets. Unfortunately my sister has awkward veins and after nurses and doctors they had to call the specialist to insert it, Shes now badly bruised and sore. We were back at the hospital the day after (Monday) and was given another 2 units of blood as her levels were low again. Me and my brother had our bloods taken for tissue typing so hopefully one of us will be a match as they did mention transplant. Does anyone know how long tissue typing results take to come back? well at least Shes back at home with me, and her daughter is also going to stay with me while we get her better
