This is interesting....From what I am told 150k to 450k is the normal range for platelets. Mine was at 50,000 on 4/8. I remembered that in 2010 my bloods came back and I was d deficient. Then my dr. retired, his replacement took a blood test in 2011 and it too came back D deficient. A year later I changed drs and my bloods came back b12 deficient. on 4/10 I started taking d3 1k and b12 5 mg or 500 mcg. On 4/17 my hematologist said woa your platelets are near normal 1.3 or 130k its the highest reading he had on me. So, I told him I was taking d and b12 and why. Previous to that I asked my doc if he checked the b12 and d levels and he did check b12 but not D, B12 was in range... On Monday I get another blood test so we'll see. At 50k I felt like crap at 1.3 much better but I have no idea if its the vit. D, Coincidence or something else going on..At any rate I haven't had bleeding or bruising issues just yet regardless of platelet count. My Doc says he doesn't check D b/c he figures everyone in the north east is deficient
