All laboratory/imaging 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. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, if the child had an intercurrent infection that can raise platelet counts. Wish you good health!

My recent lab work shows low WBC 3.1, high monocyte 13.1%, ANC 1.9, and low platelets 136. 2 months ago my WBC were 6.0, monocytes 7%, ANC 5.0, and platelets 123. This seems like a big difference to me. Should I be concerned? No recent med changes?
