i know you posted this along time ago but im new to the site and just saw this and wanted to share/compare our experience...
i was diagnosed with ITP during my pregnancy and was treated with prednisone(wich i hated- swelling,acnea,mood swings) When I delivered my son had to stay at hospital due to very low plt counts. he was given multiple IVIG treatments and was able to come home after 9days. He is perfectly healthy now thank god!
After my delivery i became very ill (we assume from low immune system, i had appendectomy, c-diff, other probs).
my son is 19months old and i still live with ITP (which hemo told me it would most likely go away after pregnancy)
I get IVIg evry 2month approx when my platelets drop below 40.
would love to hear you experience.....????
