Identification of thalassemia can be done by hplc. If she has the reports, you can send me those personally. If its of severe variety (beta thal major), blood transfusion is the only means to keep the hb elevated.

Dear lybrate-user, need to do some basic investigations, just by hb readings we can not blindly say it is blood cancer. First avoid advises from the relatives, they are not doctors. Consult the nearby good homeopath with the basic investigations of hb, pheripherial smear, s.ferritin, ibc. Etc. Firs try to take good healthy foods.
