A normal platelet count is between 150,000 - 400,000 platelets per microliter (mcL). Some labs represent this number as 150-400. Depending upon how they represent their findings your platelet count may be either high (500,000), or may be very low (500 as shown). Most labs will show an H or L next to any abnormal values shown on a report that is either High or Low. The best thing to do is consult with your doctor.
It's considered high, but the range varies by technique and instrument calibration. It's about 80 points above the high normal range, which may be interpreted by your doctor as high normal, or abnormal depending on your medical history and other CBC results.
Yes!! This is pretty high! Norm range is 150,000-375,000
High

A low platelet count generally puts an individual at high risk of bleeding, or hemorrhage. The underlying cause of a low platelet count could be several diseases ranging from a something benign to HIV or leukemia.
Is my platelet count too low at 88
Thrombocytopenic Purpura
no
yes
This is medical terminology for a low platelet count condition.
It's abnormal (low).
Platelet parameters on PDW being low is indicative of the probability of increased bleeding. When a platelet count is low, a person may be asymptomatic until injury or surgery.
Follow your doctor's orders closely.
no, it doesn't mean that there is HIV
low wbc count depicts immunosuppressed patient,with a compromised deffence mechanism,low platelet count means thrombocytopaenia where the patient has a bleeding disorder resulting to excessive blood loss incase of an injury
