We don't have a history of this in the family; however, her 10 year old son was born with it and had to have two transfusions immediately after birth. She did not have a nose bleed. She did have a rash on her body and her doctors had tests done and determined this is what she has. I do not know exactly was is in the IV treatment -- I do know that she has been on steroids for the last couple of weeks. They are doing an EKG now because her blood pressure has come down some but her heart rate is too high and she is continuing to vomit.
