My last blood test showed my platelet count as 122k (just gotten over a cold a few days prior). since normal range is 140-400k, should i be concerned?

No: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, your result is not a cause for concern. Your doctor can repeat the test in a few months.
