[|Human|] I have recently taken a blood test to determine my Iron levels. It was very low and also in the blood test it shows PLT levels as high with a 486.0 count. I don t know what the PLT is. Can you answer this question, and being so high, do I need to be concerned.I am having a gastroscopy this coming Tuesday to determine why hemoglobin/iron is so low and where the blood is going.Thank you for your reply.Karen Klemm
[|AI|]  Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You Aveiro deficiency with slightly high platelet count.  Now your platelet count is not much high and mild reactive increase in platelet count is common in iron deficiency anemia.  So don't worry about that. You should investigate for cause of low iron.  You may have some chronic blood loss. So search for that SND take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
