question: Hi. Around 4 months ago my blood platelet count was only 1000. The doctors never found a solution for this and my platelet count did rise eventually. They didn't find any petechia, but when I was 9 years old I did have some and the doctors thought that maybe I had the same low platelet count then. I did have a slight fever 4 months ago and my tonsils had cuts which bled nonstop and that's why we went to the blood tests to see if I had tonsillitis, but it was negative. Through the blood tests they found out about the low blood platelets. I am still curious about what it might be.I am a 14 going 15 year old girl.
