Brief Answer:
Details required.

Detailed Answer:
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney. I understand your concern.

His reports are suggestive of liver disease which could result from Alcohol consumption, Hepatitis B and C, Non Alcoholic Fatty liver disease.

However low platelet count is a cause of concern. This could be due to existing fever or could be a result of chronic liver disease or cirrhosis.

Wait for your doctor's appointment, he would ask for further investigations like Ultrasound Abdomen , Hepatitis B and C.

I hope it helps you
