Hi welcome to the health care magic
I can understand your worry regarding your daughter
But sir if you upload reports done then I can comment further
As TSH 2.4 is within range, hence report needed to evaluate your condition
For hypothyroidism confirmation Serum TSH, serum free T4 estimation done
High platelet can be from reactive thrombocytosis secondary to anemia, blood loss, infections, post surgery etc... If remain persistent high then further work up needed...
Take care
Hope your concern solved
