Does anyone had success with Rogham injections?? Doctor is advising Rogham injection. My sister is scheduled to get the injection within next 12 hrs. My sister was diagnosed with ITP in 2013. She responded to first line of therapy Steroids in 2013 and 2014. Next 4 years she did not need anything she was all fine and we forgot about ITP. Feb 2019 she needed Steroids since she had spots all over her body and her platelets dropped below 20k. For last 2months, if she stops Steroids the platelets drops below 30k(safe range).
