It is very difficult to comment on the specifics of your wife's case without actually talking with her, examining her, and looking at the multiple studies, scans, etc. It does sound like there is something going on that is not typical for a normal post-partum course, and on the surface it appears it may be a hematologic issue.
I would tell you to continue to talk to your wife's hematologist/physician to get their thoughts on what they think is going on. It's just not possible to give any more specific recommendations without actually seeing and examining her.
