Hi,
Thanks for writing in.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a rare disorder; it involves small vessels and is characterized by intravascular thrombi of aggregated platelets leading to thrombocytopenia and variable degrees of organ ischemia and anemia, which is due to erythrocyte fragmentation in microcirculation.

Following are the medications given to you:
Inderal 10 is propranolol to maintain blood pressure and for panic anxiety
Serlift 25 is for keeping your mind calm
topamac 25 is to prevent seizures
naprosyor 25 is for pain relief
I find this answer helpful
