Is my blood test report normal? My platelet count has been high in some tests and low in the last three values. My ESR is 8. Please explain whether this is normal or a cause for concern.

Mild platelet variation is common. ESR 8 is within normal limits. Monitor with periodic CBC and ESR to check trends. Please take the test regularly.

My wife is suffering from dengue as per the test report, but I am unable to confirm if the report is correct. The doctor has prescribed Grenil tablet. I do not know if this medicine is appropriate. I am attaching the report here. Please advise what to do, whether the reports are okay, what her platelet count is, and if the medicine is effective or not?
