I'm getting a few, not a lot of these but I get upset each time a new one comes up. Is this to do with my itp which is currently in the two hundreds, or the beginning of another auto immune disease.

Currently, feeling fatigued the last two years.
Dizziness intermittently
Heart palpitations

My dad died suddenly and made me even worse but my symptoms came before this happened.

Does anyone else have this? I'm currently on 0.05mg of fludrocortisone. I've been better the last few days cos I couldn't care about going to the docs for the umpteenth time. There aren't many but because I have had itp I wonder if there is a connection. Again there is one or two. Not loads. I'm so annoyed If I knew what was the problem I could treat it. I get random petechiae at times. Clotting issues? Start of new immune disease? This also seems to coincide with The medication. Hmm. I'm baffled.

Ash:

Splinter hemorrhages usually are not related to ITP and yes, there are other reasons for them. Before you start worrying though, you should discuss it with one of your doctors. Take pictures so you can show the doctor if you don't have them at the appointment.

That's good, but for the heck of it, show another doctor.
