Should I Be Concerned About The Platelet Count Of 397?

I just had a lab done and my platelet was 409. Then my doctor had me do a follow up in a month and told me to drink a lot of water before testing. I only had one bottle of water the morning prior to my test. My results came back and my count was 397. Should I be concerned? And is there anything I should be doing?
