Low platelets after Pneumonia recovery
My father has Hodgkin lyphoma and undergone 11 chemo and after that he had lung infection and has triple vessel disease.
Now his infection is cleared and was discharged from hospital having normal CBC reports with platelets 1.70 lakhs but when we did a CBC test after 1 week his platelets reduced to 65k and after 2 days 56k . He is under medicine clobitab and ecosprin.
Doc advised to give ROMISET 250mcg injection and repeat CBC.now his platelets have increased to 77k.
Wanted to know if platelets can are reduced even after infection is cleared?
How many days can it take to get report normal?
