Hi. a couple of months ago I had a blood test and it came back as my platelet count as 73, I went back a month later (last week) and had another blood test. Got a call today and they said they could not use this blood as it was clumped and to come back in 3 weeks, is this normal?
Hi, dairy have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You may have platelet clumping. So that it shows low platelet count. You need to repeat it with some other anticoagulant like citrate. Don't worry. Just relaxed.  Go for repeat blood test.  Nothing serious. After your reports just consult your physician once and take treatment accordingly if required. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
