View Full Version : Platelet count
Well I had bloodwork done because I was worried about my liver function etc. It all came back great except for my platelet level which was slightly elevated. I asked my doc and he said not to worry!! YA RIGHT!
So then I googled, silly silly me!
Has anyone ever had elevated platelets? Mine was 429 and the range is 150-400.
i have elevated platelets mine is cos ive got vb12 deficency did they not mention that? its treatable infact im off for my injection tommorow i have them ever 3 months
Do you know what your count is or how elevated it is?
no idea it was up last time i had blood test also ,theyve never told me how high just that its elevated
I dont suppose anyone else have any info??? I have been taking aspirin in hopes of thinning things out. Not sure if its necessary or not?
Hiya hun,
my platelet count was slightly elevated in november at 450, my doctor said if it goes above 500 they might be slightly worried, could just be a sign of deficiencies, mine was a case of having a baby and body repairing damage etc.
This count of 429 is really not significant, you're fine, go back in 6 weeks (this is what i had to do) for another blood test,it should prob be normal by then!
Seriously tho, don't worry xxxxxxx
Hi Alison,
A low blood platelet count is usually associated with liver problems.
Your platelet count can vary due to lots of factors, pregnancy, even having a virus.
