Hi I’m hoping someone can help me please. My husbands niece passed away in January aged 23 of a rare blood disorder called TTP that she never knew she had. We all as a family had our bloods tested and my daughter who was 7 at the time came back with slightly reduced white blood cells. I think they were 3.8. Doctor wasn’t overly concerned and said I didn’t have to have them re tested but I said yes. The first bloods were taken on the 15th February. She had tonsillitis on the 1st February.
She had the second bloods done on the 16th April. They came back Lower which I think again was 2.8. The doctor has referred her to the heamotogist and that’s on the 20th July. He said over all her white blood cells were fine, but this just one element was low. (I can’t recall what element her refered to) he also said that everything else in her bloods were fine. Overall she’s a veg healthy now 8 year old, with lots of energy and is well, but did have a stomach sickness bug last week. I’m out of my mind with worry. I’m on meds for anxiety. I’ve done the evil google which has made me worse. Has anyone experienced this, either with yourself or your little ones? I can’t begin to tell you how worried I am. Any help would be very much appreciated d
