Platelets not increasing Dengue
This is 9th day of my Dengue treatment and apart from my platelet count 36k everything else seems to be fine in body and reports. I am eating and drinking as much possible so that count can be increased but since past two days count has been swinging between 24k to 36k. Not sure what to do more. Any advise.
