Severe Fatigue

David4 asked a question πŸ’­

I have complained to my hematologist for over a year and he never mentioned that this is a very common side effect of my chronic ITP. My primary care Dr. prescribed an amphetamine 2 times a day. Prior to this prescription I was so exhausted. I was spending 3 to 4 days in bed per week. This treatment has been revolutionary for me. My question is, is it common for hematologists to miss this very common symptom of ITP? Are there any other symptoms that I should be aware of? Has anyone else used this kind of therapy for fatigue? Are there any downsides?

Thank you I am aware that I cannot take any NSAIDs whatsoever. I did look up an N said that has the least amount of gastrointestinal problems like bleeding and irritation was Celebrex. I’m not on that payroll. It’s just something I came across. Does anyone else experience very noticeable shoulder or hip pain coexistent with their diagnosis and not before?
