I am a 21 years old girl and I experience chest pain and throat pain regularly. In my cbc report my platelets are 87k which were 97k almost a week before. I have high ige levels of 1300 and high aso levels of 684. I am currently following a treatment of a doctor and my malaria, dengue test results are negative. I am seriously concerned about my health issue as why my platelets are decreasing. In my aso report it was written that my aso levels can be high because of rheumatoid arthritis. And I feel a bit pain in both of my knees often. Can I get a bit guidance of how to control the decrease in my platelets count and to control the chest pain as well? And is this chest pain throat pain anyway related to my reports of aso levels? Kindly guide me through I am very much tensed about the situation history of medical conditions: she feel chest pain commonly in the center of the chest or on left side. She has throat pain from about 2 to 3 weeks. She often feels knee pain in both knees. Previous history of current medical complaint: she has high ige levels and felt shortness of breath with high bp sometimes which comes under control by taking inderal tablet. So a Dr. said that she has asthmatic allergy and provided her with corticosteroids and naso wash. After following the treatment for 1 month she experiences throat pain. Current medication details: she is taking multivitamins including iron and a syrup to increase platelets. History of medication for the same complaint: inderal, corticosteroids etc lab tests done: aso, cp (complete blood picture), malaria, dengue, thyroid profile, vitamin d total, vitamin b12, calcium, ige, lft.

Platelet counts are frequently included in modern laboratory equipment’s. They should be done only for people with excessive bleeding, as they are not useful in other diseases like sore throat and knee pains. Also automatic platelet counters cannot separate between large platelet and small rbc as counting is done only from size. I suggest you follow conventional methods of good health. The modern method leads to too much testing and anxiety. There are only 2 simple rules for physical health, but positive mental health is also important, and that requires longer to understand. Good drs and hospitals can help in illnesses, but for a young person guidance from an exceptional Dr. is the one way to a long healthy life.
