High Platelet Count

2018-08-26 12:51:32
My wife's recent Hemogram report shows high platelet count 514 thou/mm3 normal range is 150-450. MHCH:31.70   (32-35) TLC:10.70. (4-10) All other parameters are normal. She has been having could since last 15-20 days. Which much better now. She had to do Augmentin course followed by 5 day course of Azithromycin. Still sometimes coughing is there with phlegm. I need guidance for further course of action. Or is this elevated platelet count normal after flu/cold cough?
