Dengue positive
Hi, I'm suffering from high fever (103.3 f), chills, body pain, eyes burning, vomit feeling from 1.5 days. So I went to nearby hospital, the doctor gave 2 tests after diagnosis, CBC n Dengue profile. My BP was 110/70 and weight 74.5 kgs at the time of test. In test reports, Dengue NS1 (Antigen) was positive but platelet count is 2.04 lakhs. Is that normal ? As far as I know, usually platelets count comes down in dengue. Now the doctor has advised me to do CBC test again after 2 days. He asked to take Combiflam, Oflox 200, Rablet 20 and continue these medicines for these 2 days. Please find attached test reports for more info.
Would appreciate any help/suggestions on how to take this forward. Thank you in Advance.

Continue with the above medications and keep urself hydrated.drink 5-6 litres of water per day. Platelet counts are within normal limits but as advised do CBC again after 2days to check for any decrease in platelet counts.. Use mosquito net while sleeping and keep it surrounding clean with no stagnation of water.
