Feeling particularly unwell. Also, my head feels heavy. I have some dizziness. My mom is a bit worried seeing me like this.

Doctor's answer:

Hello, based on the situation you described, if aplastic anemia occurs again, clinical diagnosis and treatment measures would involve deciding to use growth factors or performing bone marrow transplantation. Alternatively, plateletpheresis can be used to collect platelets, and many androgen drugs can also be considered to temporarily alleviate symptoms. This may manifest as fatigue, dizziness, infection, and severe skin breakdown, which can lead to sepsis.
