Does Anyone Have Any New Information About ATTP?(Acute Thrombosesis Thrombotnec Purpura)?

Question by CocoChanel: Does anyone have any new information about ATTP?(Acute Thrombosesis Thrombotnec Purpura)?
I spent 3 months in the hospital, underwent 2 surgeries, all of my organs failed, so I endured round after round of dialasis & blood transfusions. Not that I knew, I was in a coma on full life support for 2 &1/2 of those 3 months. I received “Last Rites” TWICE because the doctors assumed I would not survive long enough for my parish priest to arrive,so the hospital chaplain came by, just in case. My mother had to tell my son(who had recently turned10)that Mommy was going to Heaven soon. FINALLY, with the excellent notes of my rheumatologist, a visiting hemotologist worked through the choaos created by the other doctors. He diagnoised my ATTP. I received 11 rounds of ferrisis & woke up 17 hours after the final treatment.
Wow, you have no idea how difficult this was for me to write…
My point is this, it’s been 5 long hard years of recovery & RESEARCH,so aside from my need to just release all of this out into the void. Does anyone have any new information? (sorry for any S&G errors)

Is the Drug Rehab Treatment Program Medically Based?

Question by Carina: Is the drug rehab treatment program medically based?

Best answer:

Answer by Lisa
There is an advantage to including on-site medical care in a Drug Rehab. Physicians and nurses provide 24-hour hospital services to monitor and ensure a safe withdrawal from alcohol and other drugs. In addition, a medical staff specializing in addiction medicine can oversee the progress of each individual and make necessary adjustments to the treatment plan.
