I see my rheumatologist on a regular basis. She does routine blood work and everytime I have a slightly elevated platelet count. It s been happening for 2 years now. She said that I m not anemic and I don t have an auto immune disorder. Today she decided to refer me to a hematologist. Is there anything that could be causing it to be happening for so long?
High platelet count is mostly due to iron deficiency anemia or idiopathic throbocytosis and acute blood loss. Consult your hematologist and evaluate for the same
