What sort of tests will i need to test me for itp?
6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
ITP testing: A complete blood count (CBC) is usually ordered as the screening test for platelet destruction problems such as occurs in itp. Other testing is needed to confirm this diagnosis.

ITP: Cbc, blood clotting tests, bleeding time, possibly search for platelet antibodies http://www.Ncbi.Nlm.Nih.Gov/pubmedhealth/pmh0001562/.
