I'm working as a receptionist at a clinic, and I came across a report where a 38-year-old lady had her platelet counts highlighted as high. The normal range listed was 1.5 to 4.5 lakhs, but I'm a bit unsure about what count is actually considered too high. Could you explain what qualifies as a high platelet count?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Yes, the normal platelet count range is typically between 1.5 to 4.5 lakhs per microliter of blood. A count above 4.5 lakhs would be considered high, and it can indicate conditions like inflammation, infection, or certain medical disorders. It's important to investigate further to understand the cause.

View allI've had chronic ITP since I was a kid and my platelets are usually low, like under 20000, but they've been stable at 80000 for a while now. I'm 23 and recently needed amoxicillin for a couple of weeks, which is when I started noticing some random bruising, like one on my thigh that's a few inches long. It's kind of freaking me out because I haven't experienced this in a bit and there are no other symptoms. Should I be worried about this?
I would advise you to visit the ER, it is likely that your platelets have dropped down to a dangerous level. So kindly go to the ER and get evaluated at the earliest and take the necessary treatment for it. Drink pappaya leaf juice which will help increase the level of platelets.

I've been dealing with a vitamin B12 deficiency for a couple of months and started getting B12 injections weekly for six weeks. I just got my levels checked again, and now they're over 2000. Is this normal, or should I be worried? Also, I have some other blood work results like hemoglobin at 15, platelets at 346, and WBC at 7800. I'm curious if these are all interconnected somehow. What's going on with my blood tests?

I've got my blood test results back from January 6th, 22, and it shows my total protein is 8.9, and my globulin is 4.10, both higher than the normal range. I've attached the test report for your review. Can you help me understand what this means and suggest what I should do next?
Physician opinion is advised to the patient.
