blood disorder

I was diagnoised last year with "drug induced TTP" a month later I was in the hospital with a blood clot. I have been getting my PT INR blook test every 6 weeks but the results are going to my primary doctor. Does anyone know what kind of doctor I would be best have following my case?

I have recently had blood work done.
The result were:
Test Results Reference Range
PLT. 86. 140. - 440. m/uL

RBC. 3.58 4.20 - 6.30 g/dL
HGB 10.8 12.0 - 18.0 %
HCT 32.3 37.0 - 51.0 %
RDW 21.6 31.0 - 36.0 %

LDH 484 100 - 250 IU/L

I'm being sent to a blood specialist now, I have no answers. I've been told I'm have Anemia and my platelet are not clotting like they should.

Any one might have any answers? Oh yes my real only complaint is chronic fatigue! Please help!

Thanking you in advance,
Ditey74
