What Causes High Platelets (Thrombocytosis) | Approach to Causes, Symptoms, Treatment

Just got my bloodwork results and my platelet count is at 402 K/uL. Thanks for the explanation.

You fail to mention the effect of having the JAK 2 mutation. That is what caused mine.

Can menstruation be a cause for platelets to be slightly elevated. Had cbc just recently during my 2nd day of menses and my platelet is 403. All other labs like hematocrit, rbc etc are within normal range.

Ager esr high ho platelet low ho to kya antibiotics le sakte hai??

These doctors just throw you on some RX drug that is in fix the problem. They know nothing about natural medicine and healing the body.

I'm at 496 from my test yesterday, is it possible to lower it to atleast 450 by another test on Monday? I need it for work reasons.

My mother has polycethemia vera and her platelets count now is 890. 17 yrs taking hydroxyurea now since her platelets continue to increase even she drink 3x a day of hydroxyurea her blood developed medicine tolerance, her hematologist suggesting jakavi or jak 2 which is very expensive. We can't afford.

My platelets are at 426 should I be concerned

my blood platelet count is now 555

I have high inflammation count and high platelets since I had the covid shot. How can I correct this using sound frequencies

To lower one's platelets, naturally, consider the following foods:




I hope this helps everyone with high platelets.

Can being Gluten sensitive add to a slight higher count?

I have psoriasis, and that is also now a known reactive cause of thrombocytosis. Imflammatory conditions in general should have one's doctor consider that as a cause.

My Hematologist found I had extremely high platelets 1.3 million several years ago and put me on Hydrea. I took it for several years and my prescription kept having to be adjusted constantly. After a few years on it, my body no longer tolerate it. My doctor decided to get me into a clinical trial medication called Jakafi. It works like a dream! My platelets run steady at about 230. It's' very expensive, about $90 per pill, but if your insurance covers it or your doctor can get you into a financial assistance program and it is worth it.

I am a 46 yr old female I'm worried because my blood work results came back showing my platelets shows high of 462 h.. What this even means? Should I worry, should I be on a special diet. My doctor says I shouldn't worry too much, but I do is my body 🤦🏻‍♀️😩

My platelets went from over 550.00 and back down 9600 Dr don't Know what to do yet

Excellent, helpful, interesting. Thank you.

My platelets was 500 went on a wfpb ( no animal products) within 6 months went down to 383🙏

419 vitamin d low 25

My platelet count is 200 but my mpg is 13.6 so I’m worried

I'm super concerned...
In 2020 my platelets were 458
In 2021 it was 437
This year (2023) it's 480.

All other blood work done on CBC was normal. What could this be?

My platelets counts 1,796,000 :(

living at higher elevations from living at lower elevations ?

can you please explain how iron deficiency lead to thrombocytosis.

My platelets were always normal. Within 1 week of getting over covid (omicron) I had 6 migraine auras in 1 day and a brief lapse of memory. I went to emergency room and my platelets are 686. I looked it up and it appears covid can increase platelet count. I cannot find anything on whether it goes back down well after the infection, but since covid, I've had skin itching after shower, due to a weird rash on back and stomach that only itches after shower; strange visual disturbances (screen looks blurry when reading on my phone) and generally weak. IF YOU HAD COVID RECENTLY, IT MAY BE THE REASON. I don't know why but wonder if it's due to bodily inflammation caused by covid infection. To the video maker, if you're aware, please advise. Thank you.

ET is a type of blood cancer. It belongs to a group of conditions that affect the blood called myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN). ET is a very slow-developing blood cancer and for most people, doesn't affect how long they live for.

My son is 5
His platelets are 450
Is it normal?

Earlier in the year I had a platelet count of 504. 9 months later today it’s at 463. No idea what caused it. Wish this was better understood.

What about Plavix, if one developed an allergy to ASA?

So my platelets count is at 566 and I've been feeling chest pain, light headed and some stuff related to reactive thrombocytosis. Should I be worried? I'm 19 yrs old

My MPV is 13.1 , in lab report it says its suppose to range from 9.4 - 12.4 for normal. Am I too high in MPV?

Oh my god! So I am not allergic to showers after all!!

Excellent

i have also high platelet count 540+...

I just recently quit taking alcohol for a month now... How high will be my platelet count? Anyone please.

Hi guys. My plat count was 426 today, healthy 28 year old male. No issues or symptoms what so ever. However my doctor ordered more blood work, should I be worried ?

I currently have this issue
Normal - 400
Me - 503
Severe - 1000+
Kind of nervous about it. Redoing a blood test again in 2 months with change in lifestyle and nutrition.

My spleen was removed , this answers some questions- glad I found this video

I have platelet count of 550 twas just 475 six months ago, anyone please help advice what the first thing best to do to control the increase of may platelet count thanks and God bless us all!

You forgot to mention primary ET is part of a myeloproliferative neoplasm or MPN for short. The World health organization (WHO) reclassified it as a cancer in 2008. There are three “driver” mutations discovered to date: Jak2, CALR and MPL. Hydroxurea is the old drug of choice bit is not for long term use for our chronic cancers. Nowadays Pegulated low dose weekly interferon is the drug of choice for our chronic cancer. I am 23 years diagnosed with ET.

Sir ,is there any problem,B+platelets is transferred to o+ blood.

Hi my platelets count is highly or over u no my platelets count is 7laks how to normal pls tell suggestion what tablet

My skin itches when I take a shower. It’s very uncomfortable 😳. I also get dizzy and have passed out. I had a splenectomy many years ago because I have ITP or too few platelets. Thank you for this very important information. I wonder if it’s a possibility that my platelet count fluctuates. My blood tests have not caused a 🚩 red flag, so I assume I’m good.

My plaletes was 433. My wbc was.10.9. My Rhumatoidologist says she's gonna keep a check on it? I'm kinda concerned because the wbc decreased slightly from a mth ago and my platelets which was normal on the high side a mth ago and within a mth elevated. Do i still have the thrombocytosis at that level? When i was little i had a PTT causing bleeding. Now supposedly i don't now it appears the opposite from what i read.

I too have researched this and thanks for a great explanation. I go to a hematology center and receive iron infusions, have high platelets forever. It seems You're a blessing sent from above. Thank you for time and effort put into this video. Keep up the good work. 👍
