At what level of platelet count do we have to worry?

Answered by Apollo Doctors

I received my CBC report today. My platelet count has increased from 100,000 to 135,000 in three days. I do not have a fever, and I am eating and drinking well. The only issue is that I am feeling chills. Could this be due to low platelets? Despite this, I am performing three rounds of push ups (15 each with 30 second rests). Please advise if the chills are related to low platelet count.

Hi, my wife has a 7 months pregnancy and last week she suffered from fever. We consulted the doctor and took the medicines but a couple of days later her body filled with red rashes. We have gone through the CBP Dengue and other tests and the result of Dengue NS1 antigen is positive. I have attached the blood report. Could you please suggest the food and medicines?
