That’s my doctor’s current theory. It fluctuates, but never seems to get dangerously high.

Unfortunately, there doesn’t seem to be a way to prove that- we just seem to be ruling other things out and watching it.

At first they were watching my vitamin and mineral levels. My vitamin d and iron were super low, I was put on prescription strength supplements. Still on vitamin d.

If I learn anything else I’ll try to remember to update you!

Thanks for sharing. Takes some anxiety out of it knowing you are not alone! 💛

I don't think I know my platelet count. Hmmm...

That sounds like a crazy part of your health journey my friend. Keep me posted!

I'm so glad you are posting about this. My platelets are always elevated on my cbc labs, but no one has ever explained to me why. It is interesting to hear that it could be related to inflammation.

Thank you, Patricia 💛

Prayers for you
