Hello friend, Thank you for choosing Health care magic. I am a Homoeopath and so will be answering your question in the view point of Homoeopathy. The lab investigations of your blood give value of platelets as below normal. Any biochemical change occurring in your body is not the disease. It is the result of disease or the self defence mechanisms body takes up to keep you healthy. By administering chemical drugs we should not try to bring about changes in the blood picture also. Here you have not mentioned what made you to do a routine blood study. What symptoms were there that prompted you to do so? Or since how long you are suffering from that particular symptom? Then you will give a particular event in your life that made you sick. It can be one psychological conflict that made you sick in the organ level. It can also be like this that you had a comparatively innocent symptom in a less serious organ and that was treated by suppressive chemical drugs and thus affected the contents of the blood. It can either be an affection in the ectodermal layer which constitutes skin or an affection in the endodermal layer which constitute mucus membranes of Upper Respiratory tract , Gastro intestinal tract or Urogenital tract. The changes in the blood content is an affection more severe than the other two layers because the blood is a connective tissue developing from mesoderm. This usually happens in the treatment of simple fevers by suppressive chemical drugs. Conventional medicine has no understanding about this hierarchy of different organs or systems and so not agreeing with suppression. As a Homoeopath, I have to suspect such things also as causative factors. A detailed case taking will reveal the course of the disease and will give light to the exciting cause. The fundamental causes are MIASMS, which is the genetic understanding of disease production according to Homoeopathy. Therefore my advise is to consult an expert Homoeopath at the earliest. There is no mistake in doing all possible investigations to make the disease diagnosis. But do not take any medication only to bring back your altered blood picture. There should be radical correction of your constitution which Homoeopathy can do for you. Homoeopathy is the best holistic medicine which takes into consideration your body and mind at the same time. My best wishes for a speedy recovery through Homoeopathy. Dr. C. J. Varghese Homoeopath drcjvarghese@gmail.com
