A member asked:
I just recently got blood work done and was told that i have high cbc count, high calcium and high platelets. can you tell me a possible cause?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anything else: In your CBC "high" besides platelets? This elevation can be reactive to a infectious or inflammatory condition. Also can be up in iron deficiency. Another diagnosis would be essential thrombocythemia. Talk with your doc about continuing the workup.
