What Causes Elevated Platelet Levels?

my platelets just recently have been a little high but go up and down from 405 down to 385. but my hemotoligist dosen t find anything wrong in my mutation blood work. also i have vaginal herpes which i don t know if that could have anything to do with it but my daughter also has her platelets up and she is only 29. all this has just happened since we moved in house. the house had the renovations stopped due to renovator walking away from the job so the windows are broken and can t be opened so due to are asthma we have problems breathing but mine are worse because I have a acute pulmonary lung diease so i know platelets can go up due to inflammation plus i have 12 allergies to different things plus dog dander and there are two dogs so does it sound more like a asthma problem inflammation problem then blood?

Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Slight variatikn in platelet count is common. Platelet count up to 6 lacs are commonly seen as reactive change due to infection or trauma. So nothing to worry about that. Just be relaxed.
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.
