Low Platelets...Just a little nervous
I'm just wondering if anyone else is in a similar situation. They noticed after my glucose test that my platelets looked low so they sent me to a hematologist. I saw him last week and he didn't seem overly worried but then again a doctor never does 
. He told me to come back next week (this week, actually tomorrow) and he ran additional tests (not exactly sure what). I had an OB appointment today and told her what he told me. She said the main concern was that I am a little early to be having these issues (31 weeks today). My number as of my last weeks hematologist appointment was 92. I guess I'm just worried it could be something more serious. I'm not so worried about the chance that I can't get an epidural as I am planning to go natural. I guess I'm just worried .... thanks for listening!
