Male 46, hepatitis C, recently diagnosed with cirrhosis, has been suffering ITP for over 3 months, platelets do not go upper than 10.000. Biopsy says portal fibrosis. Also, has active hepatitis with a level of 1.500.000 yes, you read correct. Impossible to treat hepatitis c due to low platelets. Question is, what is there to do? how can these platelets go up so he can be treated? no drinking, taking good care of his health. Jaundiced since 5 days ago, very weak, bruising very much. Is there hope?
