Q: my 4 month old has high platelet of 454 k/ ul is that really bad?

: Moderate elevation of platelets is not too concerning, however, its significance should be interpreted in the context of full clinical scenario the test was ordered for.

The normal upper limit is approximately 400k. The reliability of manual counting is questionable. The number you provide should not cause concern but please confirm with your physician.
