Hi
I am suffering from ITP for last 3 years. I also have Lupus. Took lots of steroids for ITP which helped me for sometime then back again to ITP. Ver low number. I took Rituximab , total of 8 infusion in one year. 4 infusion lasted me about 8 months then my platelet dropped to 10. Again took 4 infusion of Rituximab, It is been 4 months since. Holding my number around 160. Let’s see how long it goes. My oncologist suggested splenectomy. I am not interested in surgery at this point. I will try Rituximab again if my ITP comes back. I am 66 years old female. I also take papaya leaf tea from amazon. Hope it helps someone with ITP.
