hi jajati
i am not sure exactly what you have

have you had a bone marrow examination?
if yes, is it ITP?

if so, you have a few modalities you can try

1. steroids
2. ivig
and
3. bone marrow transplant
4. newer medicines like revolade

since all the therapies have some serious side effects
please meet your hematologist

best of luck
