I have a total plaletet count of 127...  dropped to that in last six months.. happened two years ago when i was on crestor.. stopped crestor and went back to normal. Not on crestor now...but am taking red rice supplments ... should i worry.. I worry that I may have leukemia.
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Don't worry about your platelets count.  Red rise supplement does not have any major effect on platelet count. So don't worry.  And only slightly low platelet count does not mean leukemia. It is seen in many conditions.  Even simple viral infection can lead to low platelet count. So just be relaxed. You just need repeat platelet count after a month. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions then you can ask me. I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
