I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with low platelet levels for about a year now, and I've noticed that every morning I wake up with a cough that brings up dark blood. On top of that, I've been having chronic cough and cold issues. What steps should I take to address these problems?

So, I'm dealing with this low platelet count situation. I've already tried medication and even got saline, but my platelet levels are still low. My family doctor thinks I should see a hematologist. What could be the reason my platelet count isnt improving? What can I expect from a hematologist visit, and are there other treatments I should be considering?

So I recently got my blood test results back and a few things are standing out to me. My ESR is at 36, my hemoglobin is low at 10, and my eosinophils are at 7. Everything else seems to be within the normal range. I'm just wondering if there's something I should be concerned about or if there's any specific reason for these levels?

Congratulations on recovering from chickenpox. _Chicken Consumption After Chickenpox_ There's no specific restriction on consuming chicken after chickenpox.
