I was down with dengue fever (detected on 2 nov'18) and been admitted on same day in hospital ( from 2 to 10 nov'18). After discharge on 10-nov'18, my platlet count was approximately 70k after one week on 17-nov'18 platlet count reached to 2.39 lakh again after one week on 24th nov it decreased to 1.37 lakh and now today it is 1.19 lakh Please confirm is there any issue why my platlet decreased from continuously last two weeks or it is normal? + i have some pain in joints and in back too

Please repeat the platelets and check after a couple of days. If the pattern is still decreasing, you will need further investigations. At present 1.19 is not alarming. Repeat the test. Do u have a relapse of the fever..? The joint pain will be present for a while.
