Most often, a high platelet count is not serious and may not cause any major symptoms. However, having a high platelet count can lead to blood clotting which can block blood flow through your body.

Dr. Dhankecha Suggests...

Take a BUN/CREATININE RATIO Test or Take a ANA PROFILE BY LINE IMMUNOASSAY/IMMUNOBLOT Test
