Can take vaccine in thrombocytopenia?

2021-05-01 17:04:16
My mother was diagnosed with thrombocytopenia in September 2020. Her platelets had dropped to 90,000. After a month of medication and other home remedies, it became 13,0000. After that, we didn't get it checked. Now I want to get her vaccinated. Is it safe? Also, what test should I get done for general platelet count? CBC or some other special test? Please advice. Thanks.
