Nonstop Nosebleeds

Hi! My mom is battling MM and she is suffering nonstop nose bleeds. We have been to an Ears, Nose and Throat doctor twice this week and got her nose cauterized twice within two days and give Afrin, ointment  and Saline. Mom’s platelets are extremely low right now and the dr said that only other option is to pack her nose to try to stop the bleeding. Has anyone else had to deal with this situation? If so,  how did you all handle it? Thanks in advice for your advice.

    nose bleeds

    Hello Wattse31,

    I had nosebleeds particularly after my bone marrow transplant. I found that staying really hydrated helped me. I wish you and your mom the best!
