Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have immune thrombocytopenic purpura. Your immune system causes destruction of platelets.  Steroid is helpful to suppress your immunity, and it will lead increase in platelet count. You should continue with steroids, or you can also take immunoglobulin according to need.  Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
