Recovered From Dengue Fever. Feeling Weak. Platelet Count Is 150. Normal?

I leave in Indonesia, I had denguee fever a couple of month ago and I recovered quickly and well. Now it's been a few days that I'm feeling a bit week again I went to take a test to see my level of platelets and is 150 while the minimum should be 250. Is this normal? Can the platelets go down again after 2 months?
Thank you

Hi Dear
Welcome to the board of Health Care Magic,
I can feel your anxiety. But i would like to assure your that 1.5 lakh platelets are perfectly adequate.
You should not worry about again falling of platelets. Platelets do fall because of many reason even a mild viral infection will cause the fall.
Usually dengue is not occurring frequently, as humans do develop some immunity for this infection after a single episode of dengue.
I think you are perfectly normal weakness could be because of any mild attack of viral infection etc
Hope your query is answered
Thankz
