A question for your GP as history of blood results and medication is part of discernment process. I once had a platelet count of teice the recommended normal. This was before APS arrived. My red blood counts were low and the theory was that my platelet count was up because my RBC was low. Some part of my circulatory management system was compensationg for low RBC. eventually it was found I have gluten sensitivity snd my gut was not absorbing iron. So, my 2cents is that interpreting blood numbers can be complicated and best interpreted by a professional who can spot patterns.

Hi can you schedule a telephone appointment for a chat with your GP, they and your specialist will be able to flag up any discrepancies. MaryF
