@cd33 Thrombocytopenia mostly occurs in people who had been on rifampin, taken a break, then went back on, although I have seen a report of it occurring in primary treatment (Respir Med Case Rep. 2023 Feb 25:42:101823.)

@tw508 with me I had no breaks. At 11month of being on it, I started getting bruises. I ignored that for a week until the bruises started getting very purple and green on torso legs and arms and thought I better send an email and ask about it. Got a call at 10pm to go straight to emergency. So you see it affects us all differently. It to date after ceasing rifampicin all is good.
