Immune thrombocytopenic purpura: What were your first symptoms?

Hi, it's nice to see that there are forums for people with this strange disease.

In my case, I didn't have any symptoms, it was during a routine bloodwork that I discovered tht my platelet count was low. Several tests and exams later I got my diagnosis

I had these small bumps on my skin, its called petekiah (sp?) and I always get a ton of nose bleeds. I didn't find out until much later about ITP, I was shocked when I found out both of those things are related.
