My Story And a Possible Solution to Itp
Posted: 10-06-05 23:15pm

I had full-blown thrombocytopenia purpura for quite a while. My platelet count dropped to 4,000. They gave me prednisone for a long time and the count kept dropping after the the dosage was reduced.

In early tests my spleen wasn't functioning abnormally and I did not have any form of cancer. My eukaryocytes were abundant. But somehow the count was still dropping.


I took matters in my own hands and did a lot of research. Ascorbic acid (vitamin c) fights off infections. I took four ascorbic acid tablets per day. My platelet count lingered around 70k. Then slowly began to drop again. The vitamin c had some effect to say the least but did not stop the pestilence.


Since that wasn't quite the answer, I did research on other vitamins. The potassium vitamin actually caught my attention first. It seems that potassium is an antagonist to rat poison. Rat poison makes the rats bleed internally. Potassium strengthens cells.

After I started taking the potassium with ascorbic acid, my platelet count jumped to eighty thousand. Three months later, it was at 120,000. Now it has been three more months and I haven't experienced any negative affects. It seems the disease has lost its potency. I no longer have nose bleeds, fatigue, nor ruptures underneath my skin.

I'm not saying this is the answer for everybody... But it seems to be working for me. Sadly the doctors laughed it off. It seems they are more afraid of losing money from the drug companies but i'd rather not conclude that. It is just a thought. And there is always the chance that there is another reason why it just got better on its own. This isn't likely considering nothing worked until I took these vitamins. I was just ecstatic when I started to get better.



Overall, I recommend for any suffering individuals to try this treatment. This isn't for cancer patients, etc. Obviously. It may or may not work, but when I was sick I tried everything I could (that wasn't dangerous). Don't overdose on it either! I wonder if it has a chance of working on others. If anybody else tries this, please leave a response. Then maybe give me an update a month or two.



Good luck

Where to Get Potassium With Ascorbic Acid
Posted: 01-12-06 02:26am

I'd like to buy potassium with ascorbic acid. However, I tried quite a few place, and I can't find potassium with ascorbic acid in there. Please tell me where to buy them. Pharmacist said I can take potassium and vitamin c together. How do you think?

Blood Clot and ITP
Posted: 07-15-08 02:31am

Hi rsie,

I also have this contradicting problem, that is low platelet count and blood clots in my legs. My doctors have refused to treat me with coumadin (warfarin) for clots because they think coumadin may cause serious bleeding due to low platelets.

What was the cause of your blood clots, did your doctors attempt to find the cause?

Thanks and all the best...
