A member asked:
Why would my dr want to watch my 425, 000 platlet count that i had for one year instaead of referring me to a hematologist to r/o what's causing it.

Iron deficiency: Are you iron deficient? This can be associated with increased platelet count. Isolated increase in platelet count is not very serious. Are you taking any medications? It would be appropriate to ask your doctor.
