Thank you for your contact to health care magic.
I read and understand your concern.
I am Dr J.D Mangukiya answering your concern.
Repeated attack of Dengue is not due to IgG but it is due to mosquito bites by aedes aegypti .
Dengue IgG positive & IgM negative indicates that u have dengue infection in past
Repeated infection by dengue virus becomes more severe than past infection .
Doctor’s opinion is right not need more medication except paracetamol; and simple pain killer and plenty of oral/iv fluids.
To avoid repeated infection you should keep away yourself from mosquito breeding place or protect yourself from mosquito bites by mosquito net or repellant.
Platlet count is enough and no need to worry more at this stage.
I will be happy to answer your further concern.
Thank you,
