So it’s about to mark a year since i’ve gotten ITP (diagnosed april of this year but it went unchecked since last year) and it’s been tough. I’ve been reading from a lot of people and how they deal with ITP and how long they’ve had it. I especially saw one that had it for 12 years. Im super scared for the future regarding my ITP, especially since i have anemia. It doesn’t feel like any of my medication is working and i’m always feeling fatigued every single day. But i have learned a few ways to help out my bruises whenever i get them. Ice for a few days and then straight heat to clear out the trapped blood. it works like a charm, but it’s super annoying to do since i have about 20+ bruises right now from my arms, to my thighs, and somehow my butt… don’t even know how that got there. But i’m slowly getting used to this “ITP” thing, and i hope for the better. If there’s anymore tips you guys have to deal with bruising please feel free to comment.
