Hi @pamandsandy,
Platelets can fluctuate without doing anything I know from my own experience. Mine went down by 400 from one lab to the next one month apart. It really does seem like a numbers game as docs like to treat high platelets. Please report back what yours do on after your next lab in July.
Happy Memorial Day Weekend to you too!
