Fosomax and Levothyroxin? Culprits????

Hey all! Not sure if this is where I should be posting this but it seemed the most reasonable place. My mother has been diagnosed with auto immune bone marrow failure...well not sure...they are still trying to decide. It's definately auto immune and it's only her platelets that are being affected...they have been as low as 7. She took Fosomax for about 6 years and stopped about a year ago and she has been on levothyroxin for hypo thyroidism for years. I've read some research saying that both of these could cause a problem with platelets. Does anyone know if this is true and if it's possible it could relate to my mom's situation? I appreciate any answers or information that it out there? Thanks so much!
