  5. I'm looking at my platelet count and it's at 120, but the normal range is supposed to be above 150 according to the report I got. Should I be worried about this? Does platelet count change daily, or is it pretty stable? If there's anything I can take over-the-counter to help, what would you recommend? I've attached my report, in case that helps.

A platelet count of 120 is mildly low (mild thrombocytopenia), but not typically serious unless accompanied by other symptoms like bleeding, bruising, or petechiae; platelet counts can fluctuate, but significant changes are unlikely on a daily basis
