I know Aubagio has a 7 mg dose but I was automatically prescribed 14 mg. Has anyone been prescribed 7 mg?

They switched me from Gilenya to Aubagio in August 2017. I'm on 7 mg. for now. They want to see if I can tolerate it besides checking to see if it aggravates my ITP (Immune Thrombocytopenia Purpura).
They think I developed ITP while taking Gilenya. At one point my platelet count was 7 (150 to 450 is the normal range). As a result, I was immediately taken off Gilenya in June besides being admitted to the hospital to raise up my platelet count - in a hurry.
Unfortunately, since June, my count has not returned to normal. And so the Nuero has decided to try Aubagio next. Again, unfortunately for me, I have since found out that most of the DMT's have had cases of ITP reported. We're hoping that the different formulation will not aggravate the ITP.

I started out on 7 also in October 2017. So far no issues that I can attribute to the medication except for some hair thinning, which for me is evenly and and I am happy about that part. I have very thick and curly hair. I like the way it has thinned out on me! lol I am not sure if I am to go to a higher mg or not yet.
