When I was at my dr on Monday for my check up (17 weeks 5 days at that point) she told she'd had a letter from the hospital saying that my platelets were low and she needed to do a blood test.
I had to phone for the results today and was told that I have to go back for another blood test in 4 weeks as I was still testing low. They said the reading was 103 incase anyone knows what that means. I thought they only worried if the reading was below 100 but please correct me if you know more about this.
anyway I'm not overly worried but just wondered if anybody else has had low platelets and how it was treated during pregnancy etc. she told me it was something to do with the clotting process but didn't go into to much detail. Anyone out there had experience of this please let me know
Thanks
