[|Human|] My daughter is having surgery to remove a breast lump. Prior to surgery is having a platelet transfusion as her white platelets continue to be low. She has had the bone marrow and blood tests and still no answers but thousands of dollars in medical bills. What else can be causing this? What other tests can she do to get a definitive result?
[|AI|]  Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have thrombocytopenia. There are many causes of low platelet count.  Like viral infection, malaria, idiopathic, Chat Doctor.  So definitive diagnosis can be made by bone marrow examination.  It will give idea.  If it is normal then may be due to some idiopathic cause or viral. Then no need to worry.  Just consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly.
