Brief Answer:
Hello dear. It looks normal.

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear. I have gone through your query. So a normal platelet count varies from 150-450 thousand per microltr and urs are very slightly above that range and that should be considered normal. Moreover, blood donation has no impact on platelet counts and any stress can lead to increase in platelet count how trivial it may be.
Hope you understand. Nothing to worry.
Kind regards
