Some Specialists advise Gammaglobulin infusions also.What are current symptoms ,is she getting spots on body,, having bruising easily,prolonged bleeding etc? what is her Liver profile, PT,BT?CT, ANA test? if you give clinical symptoms it will decide what next should be done There is a choice of splenectomy( spleen removal) also depending on clinical severity.
