Still looking for answers on my son’s cbc?
He’s 3 years old. Has a history of ITP with no relapses since diagnosed in May. Sat night he got a fever 99.5 and mild headache. Sunday fever got up to 101.5 and he had a very painful headache that went away with tylenol. Monday headache was lighter and fever was 99.8 so I took him to prompt care to get a cbc. Viruses tend to lower his platelet count and i wanted to check on them. They wouldn’t do one, cause their lab tech was gone for the day. They did a strep culture that came back negative and said he’s fine go home. By Wed. he seemed fine so I took him to the playground. His nose started bleeding and wouldn’t stop so I took him to the ER for a CBC. Platelets were 255 white was 6.2 and MCH and MCV were low and RDW was high, can’t remember the numbers. They said he seems fine so they sent him home still bleeding and said to keep pressure on it. It eventually stopped and he went to bed. In the morning Thursday he woke up with a wicked cough, so I took him back to promt care thinking maybe with a cough they could prescribe something. They said there is nothing wrong with him take him home and give him allergy meds. We get half way home and he starts vomitting bright red clotty blood, so we go straight to the ER. Chest XRAY is clear and CBC is Normal excpet these values wbc 3.7 mcv 69.1 mch 22.2 rdw 18.1. His platelets fell to 226 but are still fine since he’s been down to 8 before with his ITP. They send him to the childrens hosp and they again tell me he’s fine, go home. Saturday he was complaining he felt something hot going down his throat and then he got the hiccups which he never gets, so For my own peace of mind I took him for another CBC Sat and his mcv and mch are still low and his rdw is still high. His platelets are 250 and his white is 7.2. So I’m guessing he’s anemic. His hemoglobin and crit are right at the low end of normal. But the docs keep telling me nothing is wrong. Since I’ve never seen other 3 year olds walking around puking blood casually, I know he’s not fine. Anyone have any ideas. They want him to go see and ent on Monday to check for a torn blood vessel in the back of his throat or an active post nasal bleed. Thanks in advance! O ya and He does also have an appt with his ped. but it takes weeks to get into her sometimes, so that’s why I use promt care.

Here are a few things I’ve come up with on my own since the docs seems to want me to do all the hard work.
Sinus infection They said no cause he has no signs of infection since his wbc went down instead of up.
Ulcer: they said no he’s too young, but they never checked out his belly at all.
Some sort of weird virus that causes bleeding They said there aren’t any viruses like that, but just one week before us my neices had all the same symptoms to the T without the bleeding
