A member asked:

When should a dr recheck a platlet count that was 419 (the max range lab values was 400). she said 2 months but im nervous.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

May be normal: It is perfectly normal for 5% of the population to be a bit outside of the "normal" lab values. Unless you are far outside of the norms or know that your values are changing significantly over time there is little to worry about. It is reasonable to recheck mildly abnormal labs in a few months. That value may be your normal platelet count and not indicative of any problem.
