Dear Srihari,

I am so sorry about your little girl. Usually ITP in children is often by a virus. Perhaps the doctors think it is bacterial since they prescribed Dapsone. If it is caused by bacteria, hopefully that will help. Folic acid is good.

Extra Virgin Coconut Oil would be good for her. 1 teaspoon three times a day. It is anti-viral and anti-bacterial.

I would also try turmeric - 1/4 teaspoon three times a day. You can mix it with honey.

Vitamin C would be very important, too. You can give her as much as she can take in a day without getting diarrhea. That may be a lot since she is dealing with sickness.

If you can get fresh carrot juice and milk kefir for her each day, that would be very good. You can mix the turmeric in that, if she likes it that way.

Unless her red blood cell count is high, she could take 1 teaspoon of Blackstrap Molasses a day to build her blood.

An epsom salt bath twice a week would be good - 1 cup of epsom salt in a bath for 20 minutes.

I do not know how long healing will take, but I will be praying for her healing. Please do keep us posted.

In December, my son was diagnosed with ITP his platelet count went from 2,000 to 0 in a week. He was given many treatments in his 2 week stay at the hospital. Including IVIG treatments, infusion of platelets and several types of steroids, but nothing lasted for long. His lymphatic system was clogged and not draining. His spleen was enlarged. This site was truly aided our situation. Many people offered diets that they noticed that helped which include: eating a lot of green, avoid meats, avoid dairy and blood thinning foods (onions and garlic).

I read from someone on this site that they noticed that when they used boron, there platelet count would improve. I didn't know anything about boron and was unsure about it use. In reading that information that told me that he had some type of bacteria that was unresponsive to antibiotics. I am a distributor of essential oils so I started researching on the uses of Oregano. I changed his diet and I gave him oil of oregano, thieves and frankincense for 2 weeks 4 times per day and for 1 week 3 times per day. After finishing this protocol his platelet count is not 150,000. He still being monitored at this point. A number of other things were used in addition to the above mentioned, but the most important thing I did was to pray and believe he would be healed.

I would also suggest that your daughter have a zyto scan done also, it will tell you what type of vitamins or supplements that are needed to aid her body in recovering.
