Question Platelet drop after Bronchitis?

Hi Everyone!
I'm Day +650 from Allo PSCT/MUD for High Risk MDS monosomy 7. I've been doing great (fairy normal counts ) and then this past summer my platelets dropped to 110-120. My Doc did a BMB and all was well (treated at Beth Israel Boston)

I just got over Bronchitis and my platelets are down to 90. I should add that I'm a ER Physician Assistant which translates into a 'Bad Patient' 🤓
My Doc wanted to start me on Z-Pak for Bronchitis but I wanted to tough it out. I took some OTC Tylenol & cough medicine and then finally gave in and started myself on antibiotics for Bronchitis and I checked my CBC and platelets were 90..needless to say I'm freaked and just hoping antibiotics I was taking or Tylenol or virus itself caused my platelets to drop. I'm just looking for anyone else out there has had similar experience.
