Brief Answer:
hi and welcome to hcm

Detailed Answer:
This is considered to be High platelet count and it may still not mean nothing especially if you don't have symptoms but you need to see hematologist to rule out some blood diseases. I suggest to repeat trombocytes in few weeks and if these values persist you should see hematologoist. Wish you good health. Regards
