Is Low Platelet Count An Indication Of Cancer?
Hi there. After recent blood results due to numerous symptoms my platelets are 660 and my IgM is 301. Could this indicate any type of cancer? My symptoms are cancer warning signs. I also have a large thyroid cyst/growth that is being biopsied 2 weeks from now. Should I be concerned?

Hello,
Usually cancer symptoms have a high number of platelets. You need to repeat the exams.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care.
