Lisa143,

Your platelets from this test are lower than the normal range so it's only reasonable to repeat the tests to confirm your blood counts. You should probably know your HGB (hemoglobin) level too.

Your RBC is normal for a woman and your WBC is OK too. There's no need to assume the worst, just to be practical and find out if the test results are right or wrong. Blood counts have an unfortunate habit of varying from one test to another, so it can take 2 or more tests to confirm a pattern.
