HELLO,
AT PRESENT PLATELET COUNT IS FAIRLY GOOD.
WHATEVER SHE TAKE IS O.K,
ADD FRESH FRUIT, MILK SEMI SOLID DIET WHENEVER FEVER COMES DOWN.
NEXT TIME IF PLATELET COUNT IS LOW, WATCH FOR HAEORRAGIC DOTS OVER LEGS ANY PART OF BODY. IF THEY ARE SEEN BETTER SOLUTION IS
HOSPITALIZATION.
IF PLATELET COUNT IS ABOVE 50, OOO NO WORRY.
ADD CITRUS FRUITS LIKE LEMON ORANGE KIWI GOOSEBERRY ETC.
SIPS OF TOMATO SOUP.
PLATELET COUNT SHOULD BE MONITORED.
O.K, BYE.
