Low platelet count

2017-11-24 22:55:38
Hello, I just got back from the doctor and my platelet count was 142 but all my other blood routine blood tests came back normal. Also my liver function blood tests were normal and my thyroid and anemia tests came back normal as well. He is having me come back in 2 weeks to check my platelet count again. Should I be worried? The first thing I started to Google kept coming up my lukemia. Well I'm worried now
