Hi. Welcome to HCM.I beleive that u r suffering from ITP (idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura) a condition of low platelet count.Idiopathic means unknown cause. In medical field we have something called Autoimmune disorder, means your body's own immune system is targeting and destroying your platelets. The treatment option in such conditions is giving immunosuppresant, that is what i guess your doctor is doing. This low platelet count is the reason y u r getting gum bleeding also. By taking wysolone (it contains a steroid prednisolone) usually u will be symptom free. If i am correct that u r suffering from ITP then dear there is no cure for this, but your doctor can stop the progression of the disease by giving steroids. But remember this dont ever stop wysolone tablet on your own, it is too dangerous to do so. Consult your doctor and then stop. If u still have query pls feel free to ask. Regards and wish u good health.
