Re: [EvansSyndrome] alex



 

Hi..Sorry to hear about Alex.  My granddaughter Madison is Alex's age(diagnosed with ITP/Evan's Syndrome one week before her 5th birthday) and we have followed you for years as she has Evan's Syndrome and her platelets have been hard to keep at normal levels also.  I  just read your email, and tried to do a little search of the drug you are talking about.  you might want to check a few of these sites.  Debbie..."Nana to Madison..age 9 in August.)

 

Nplate  .....I believe this is how they spell it

hello everyone this is mindy, alex's mom havent been on in quite awhile Alex is having his famous summer drop just like clockwork his platlets are at 4,000 the doctors are frowning on using riutuxon again he has already had three rounds over the past 3 years they are leaning for the new medication called "en plate" not quite sure of the spelling but its a once a week shot and it raises the platlets. He underwent a bone marrow today since its been several years since he had one before they start the shot. So I wanted to ask if anyone is familiar with this new medication? The doctors are very excited about it.
Thank you , mindy (mom to alex 8 1/2)
