Does a high platelet count and vomiting related to a probable cerebral aneurysm?
Q. I was just recently discharged from the hospital due to a migraine attack coupled with vomiting. A day later, and I'm still throwing up, still having a massive headache (pressure's kind of like something is pushing behind your eye). My CBC result showed a high platelet count. 54,100 platelets more than the highest normal platelet count. I don't know what these things mean. Could someone help me out? Please...

What does a high platelet count mean?
Q. I have been donating platelets for three years. My count has always been high (the lowest was around 350,000). Today when I went, my platelet count was 453,000. Platelet donors over 450,000 get deferred from donating again for four weeks. Is my count too high? Does this mean I should get checked out for some kind of disorder? Is it possible for my body to produce more platelets b/c I donate about every two weeks and it is anticipating the need?

A. First of all, a high platelet count is known as thrombocytosis. It can be caused by many different reasons such as an infection, inflammatory conditions such as arthritis and other conditions like chronic myelogenous leukemia, Hyposplenism, Hemorrhage and/or iron deficiency. Your platelet count is just out of the normal range of 150,000 and 450,000 per mm (or micro litre) and it's important to note that deviation does not necessary imply any form of disease, but I would recommend getting this checked with your doctor. To put it in laymens terms, high platelets create thicker blood. If you have too many platelets (750,000 or 1,000,000) you have a much higher risk of blood clotting conditions like Thrombosis.

What causes high platelet count (525 or so) and low white blood cell count (don t know the number)?
Q. I have a high platelet count and low WBC count. Any ideas?
Asked by JennaH - Fri Feb 8 12:37:49 2008 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments
A. Usually if one type of cell count is high, another is low, since the proportions of both cell types in the blood sample change if there is a change in either cell type. In your case, the white blood cells may appear low simply because the blood volume that would normally contain more white blood cells is occupied by platelets. If your white blood cell count is just slightly below normal, then its a safe bet that the aberration is due to the platelet count. High platelet counts often occur without any apparent reason (called essential thrombocythemia), but they can also occur from conditions like polycythemia vera or myelogenous leukemia - docs often check for signs of these other possible causes after finding a high platelet count. … [cont.]

A. A high platelet count is known as thrombocytosis. Most of the time, thrombocytosis itself is pretty benign (so nothing to worry about). But, what is actually more important is the factor that is causing the high platelet count (which should be checked by your doctor). Platelets are components of blood (they are what causes blood clotting), and will not adversely affect other parts of your body (besides the rare chance of getting a thromboembolism).

Asked by yorkshirecath2004 - Wed Dec 6 11:47:30 2006 - - 7 Answers - 1 Comments
A. There are two reasons: 1) Your bone marrow is producing more platelets than it should 2) Your spleen is not removing as many platelets as it should Either one could be the reason but only your haematologist will be able to tell you why your PLT count is so high. They will want to treat it so as to remove risk of unnecessary blood clotting as it is the platelets that stem bleeding when you have an injury. And the normal range for platelets is around 150 million and 450 million per ml of blood.

A. Your platelet count is in an average range actually and I don't believe there is anything to be worried about there. Your Sed. rate, however, is your body's response to pain/swelling/inflammatio n. When inflammation is present in the body, certain proteins cause red blood cells to stick together and fall more quickly than normal to the bottom of the test tube. These proteins are produced by the liver and the immune system under many abnormal conditions, such as an infection, an autoimmune disease, or cancer. Do not panic. There are many reasons for a higher rate of sedimentation and it's most likely not as bad as it sounds. Your doctor will know exactly what to do when you talk to him next week.

A. High red blood cell and platlete counts can be high for quite a few different reasons and since I do not know anything specific about your situation and can't say why but a high blood cell count is almost always indicative of an infection (white blood cells are the warriors of the immune system-if there is a threat then there are usually more of them). Good luck.
