Platelet Count?

1 Reply

I have had a high Platelet count now for a year, but it was only brought to my attention today by the drs after having my bloods done yesterday..

I am being investigated for Lupus, but seeing my rumo this friday..

Is this normal to have a high platelet count and high total white cell count or is this all indicating something else?

I have a high platelet count but it's not a normal indicator of lupus. High platelets was one of the 1st things that showed up when I started being ill with lupus and has been consistantly high so my rheumatologist does not worry about it
