That happened to me once too. I was having Vidaza and had my routine blood test out of my port. The haematologist came and told me I needed a platelet transfusion. I was a bit shocked, my platelets had never been much below normal before. I asked for a second blood test and the platelets came back just below normal and I didn't need a transfusion. Turns out the blood had clotted a little on the first test.
