Low platelet: Low platelet can be caused by different things from drug, infection, autoimmune, malignancy/bone marrow problem, vitamin deficiency, destruction/consumption etc. Since the appt is not until april 5. What you can do is to ask your md to repeat the level again- to make sure the level doesn't go down further to 10k or less. If it is 10k or lower- she needs to get transfusion and to be seen sooner.
