27. no known risk factors for blood clots. slightly overweight. not as physically active as i used to be. platelets are slightly raised. at 467 roughly. scared of blood clots. pain in right leg and chest on and off for 2 days. mostly not there. clot?

A common reason for elevated platelet count in women is iron deficiency. Take oral iron and multivitamins to address your likely iron deficiency. It would be helpful to increase your physical activity. The pain you described is unlikely to be due to blood clots. Wish you good health!
