Every patient is different, but I too developed thrombocytopenia 20k after my second booster. Some minor bruising noted but no frank bleeding.
My hematologist contacted the CDC who while not being definitive and did not provide a written response, (by my physician’s report) verbally told the providers that they have reports of such. They gave a risk factor of 1 in 10 million. They reported that of those reported the overwhelming majority returned to normal in months. Mine took about 18 months. Normal >200k, now for about 2 years.
I have even rolled the dice again and have taken last and this years booster without change in platelet count. I did switch manufacturers just out of unscientific caution.
Again, your experience may be different. You might ask your providers to talk directly with the CDC.

You don't know how much I appreciate you're Reply....
I'm kind of lost .....because I was healthy, At my age I was getting little Aches and pains but nothing serious. It scares me because medication I'm taken Promakta .... Have a side effect on liver....

I also have very minor bruises.... That's why my Doctor did bone marrow biopsy.....nothing, no cancer.

Did you have a bone marrow biopsy?
What medication did you Take, If you took any .
Sorry for giving you many questions, But I'm still researching and trying to understand And get some knowledge about this .

What did you do or What your Doctor prescribed to you During this 18 month.

Again thank you very much for reaching out and giving me hope.
