In recent days, I can not log in MyLot, as usual. I am being treated in hospital. My platelets are very low. I was only 10,000 platelets. In fact, the normal platelet count 150,000. Now my platelets, 55,000. I really hope, my platelet count continued to rise.

Very sad, to hear you are in the hospital. I hope your condition is getting better now, and no serious illness. I am very sad, if I have a sick friend. Health is very expensive, I hope you can maintain your health, after you recover.

That's good, you follow your doctor's advice. You have to really pay attention to your health, if not cared for in hospital again. Hospital costs are very expensive, you must really know. So do not throw money at the hospital. I also do not want to hurt. So I am very concerned about my health. Hopefully, we all stay healthy. Better to prevent, than to cure. I hope, now you've really healthy.

BE at peace now that you are admitted in the hospital. I just hope that they will give you the proper medication to treat the condition you have. Having a low platelet count is quite scary because it means that your antibodies are also weak and you will be prone to have infection. Low platelet count is also an indications for several conditions like hemorrhagic fever or dengue, anemia and other blood related dyscrasias Have enough rest. Will pray that you'll get well soon.

No wonder you were so tired all the time. Have the doctors told you what made your platelets drop so low?

I am happy that you are well enough to leave the hospital. When you are cleared by the doctor to return to your normal routine, you must take everything slow with frequent rests.

I hope you are getting better! I do not like to hear that anyone is sick. Do they know what caused the platelets to drop like that? What types of treatment procedures are they pursuing? I really hope you are better very soon and get out of the hospital!

Sorry to hear about your hospitalization. Maybe that's the cause why you have fainted last time when your son gave you first aid, and your husband brought you to the hospital.I hope you regain your normal platelets soon and take care.

10,000 and 150,000, that's such a huge difference. What happened to u, and why would your platelets drop till that low? It's really dangerous and u could actually die from that. U ought to be taking more rest and stop stressing yourself over mylot. I hope u are discharged now and your platelets are back to the normal levels, after 2 weeks. U should take more iron to boost your platelets or even red meats as well.

Yes. I almost lost my life. But, God still wanted me to stay alive. My platelets dropped due to dengue fever, and in addition there is a blood disorder. I also had vomited blood. In 3 days, I did not get out of bed. I also have a blood test in 8 hours. Luckily, my platelets go up, and I could sit down, although it should not move too much, for fear of bleeding. Now I've left the hospital, and still in the recovery period.

Hello indahfth. What disease are you suffering now? Because here in our country, there is a disease which is called dengue fever. If you are suffering from dengue fever you're platelet will go down. The cause of a dengue fever is being bitten by a mosquito and it was named as " Aedes aegypti". When I was a child I suffer from dengue and this cause my platelet to go down. My father brought me to the hospital and after few weeks I'm already fine. There is a herbal they had given to me. The herbal tea really taste bitter. But I still manage to drink the herbal tea which they had made. They were suppose to add blood to my body but when they checked my platelet, it was increasing already. Drinking the herbal tea makes my platelets to go up and makes me recover. Hope you're feeling good now.
