You need a referral to be seen by a Hematologist. They will probably take a peripheral blood test and most likely a bone marrow aspiration to check what your marrow looks like. To my understanding, hepatitis can be the cause of Aplastic Anemia. From the counts you mention, I would guess you might be considered moderate AA. Of course this is only my guess... Please make an appointment with a Hematologist as these procedures can take a bit to schedule and get results.

BTW, I'm just wondering when were your last counts taken? It seems to me that if your platelets are at 108K, you really shouldn't be bleeding easily or be experiencing too much petechiae. You should check this out soon as maybe your counts are dropping...

Keep us posted and take care
