My latest blood test shows a platelet count of 85,000, and Im really worried. Could this be a sign of dengue, or is it more likely a regular viral fever? Ive attached the test report for you to see. What do you think?

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?
