I had my spleen and gallbladder removed last month on the 20th. It was supposed to be my "cure" for my low platelet count that caused me to not to clot when I bled. I had 2 infusion therapies the week of my surgery to decrease my risk of bleeding during the operation. My platelet count was 49,000 before the infusion (normal is 150,000-400,000). After the surgery it rose to 718,000 and now it's down to 453,000 last week. I'm praying my count stabilizes and doesn't continue to fall still.

I've had severe complications from the surgery, a blood clot in my lungs, fluid around my lung, and just found out that I have an abscess on my pancreas. I'm so exhausted from continuing to deal with all these problems, and to make matters worse some drs are blaming my continuing symptoms on my anxiety!

Sounds like a lot to deal with - sorry this is so frustrating for u! And it sounds like you might need a new doctor, one who is a little bit more understanding and willing to help u rather than just blame it on your anxiety. Of corse u have anxiety- u are constantly dealing with health issues that the docs can't help u with! I hope u get better soon...

Also, with your lungs being restricted, it's going to tend to make anxiety worse anyway. Because, deep breathing helps with anxiety and I doubt you are able to breath that deeply at this time. Then they start to feed off of each other.

Sorry you are having such a rough time. I have a blood clot in my leg and just hoping it doesn't go to my lungs before the doctors get it to go away.
