Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
You have spleenomegaly with thrombocytopenia. You may have some serious disorder like lymphoma. Or you may have some serious infection. You should go for bone marrow examination to search the cause of thrombocytopenia. If needed go for splenic biopsy. Then you should take treatment accordingly.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
