A member asked:

My red and white blood cells are normal but my platelets are 383 indicating high. normal is 379. is that a problem?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Platelets are fine: Platelet counts fluctuate by 10000 to 20,000 if checked daily. So I would say your platelet count is normal. Nothing to worry about it. Actually we do not worry about them as long as they are between 100,000 to 400,000.
