Had to go to the ER.
Turns out I had "Idiopathic Thrombocytopenic Purpura"(ITP)


normally one should have between 150,000-450,000 mm3.
I had 2,000.
I had sores and bruises appearing all over my body, nose bleeds, and i was bleeding internally. I could really feelit in my kidneys and bladder*PAIN*



lucky enough this disorder was Acute, meaningthere was no physical ailment causes it, it just appeared. the docs say there is no known reason why it happens.



And then i could go into a stroke, even death

the treatment went well, thank, whatever god u beleive in.

It was slow going, but I bounced back quicker than the doc thought i would(they felt I would be admitted for at least 2weeks)
After my last CBC(bloodwork), I was up to 324,000 mm3.

Good thing, I've been feeling some of the sideeffects that goes with it(Flushed, heartburn, drymouth, increase urination

being a steroid, I gotta be careful.

I AM SO GLAD THIS WAS NOT ANYMORE SERIOUS THAN IT COULD HAVE BEEN. I PUT A GOOD FACE ON WHILE AT THE HOSPITAL, BUT INSIDE, I WAS REALLYWORRIED. EVEN SCARED. FOR SOMETHING TO COME OUT LIKE THIS OUTTA NOWHERE AND ALMOST KILL ME, MAKES U THINK MORE ABOUT WHATS GOING ON IN ONES LIFE.
I'M VERY GLAD FOR MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS WHO WERE THERE WHEN I NEEDED THEM.
My next goal now is to get things in order in my life.(I"M NOT GOING RELIGIOUS)
but the little things i keep putting off, both personally and professionally.

I'll be $broke$ afterwards for awhile, but i'll bounce back.
I'm a fighter.
HEPNESS TO ALL,
Sean
