Well last Sunday my little sister (23) woke up bruised from head to toe. We bright her to the hospital and her platelet levels were extremely low along with white blood cell counts. She spent a week in the hospital being given transfusions and being on close watch. Her last transfusion she was tested at 42000 platelet count and .6 white blood cell count. That was sunday. She went in today and her counts were 6000 and .4. Her body can't produce nor hold them. Doctors have no idea what's wrong with her. Marrow biopsy was done its not luikimea but that's all they can say. They released her from the hospital because she's more susceptible to infection there and her white blood cell count is so low she had a better chance of staying healthy at home. Some scary stuff. At this rate her white count will b at zero in 3 days if the dropping stays consistent. They can't keep giving her transfusions, her body may start to fight them (so they say ) so this leads me to the question of is there any hospital doctor or anything of the such anywere in the country that is known to fix things like this. The hospital can't even point us in any direction there only answer is bone marrow transplant which involves radiation and or chemo therapy before hand. Not happy about that. Any help is much appreciated need to get this fixed before it's too late. Say some prayers please
