Hi,I am Dr. Robert Galamaga (Hematologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Decrease In Platelet Count From 135 To 84?
i have seen a decrease over the past two years of my platlets from 135 to 84. I been on lorazapam for years. Been carrying for wife with cancer who just died. My other CBC counts are normal or low normal. Count it be the lorazapam causing the low platlets
hi i dont think so lorazepam reduces the platelet counts,it depends on your current clinical condition,it aslo depend whether you have fever at present or the previous week before checking your platlet counts
platelet counts are reduced because of infections mainly because of the bacterial or viral they may also get reduced in conditions like immunolical disorders you need to go and meet your physician and take futher advise regarding the platelet counts
during this periods you need to take care to avoid injuries and also mucosal infections,unncessary intravascular injections i suggest you strongly to check your urine,stools and also sputum to see whether there is a tinge of blood in that
Try to meet your physcian as early as possible and take advise from him, take a course of doxycycline 100 mg twice daily for seven days.
Hi, dear I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. There are many causes of low platelet count. Most common cause is viral infection. It may be due to some other cause also. Lorazepam generally don't cause low platelet count. If you don't have any symptoms then no need to worry. Just monitor your platelet count. No treatment is required. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
