Normal: This level is within normal limits. Talk with your PCP if there any questions about the CBC.

Probably OK: Hi. That's a very mild decrease in platelet count, and not low enough to give you any problem with stopping bleeding. I assume your other blood cell types are present in normal numbers(?) and that you have no known bone marrow pathology. The doc who ordered the CBC will want to follow your platelets. If they fall further, you will need a hematology consult, but they may normalize. Good luck!

Ok: These levels are ok. You do not need to do anything or worry about risk of spontaneous bleeding.
