What Should I Do For Low Platelets And Monocytes Count?
I have low platelets (136 level) and low absolute monocytes (182 count). This is my second CBC in 4 weeks and those counts are the same both times. My TSH level is slightly lower at a 39 count. My PCP does not seem concerned, but I am. Can someone help with possibilities of what could be going on? Thanks

your platelets count is not much low. slight lower range is not worrisome. and low monocytes count does not mean a lot. you may have some infection or other subclinical thing that does not produce any symptoms. so dont worry you dont have any significant problem as far as monocytes and platelets are concern. for yous tsh you should consult physician and follow his advice.
