Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. You have dengue fever. So it is quite obvious that your platelets count goes down. Its very common in the dengue. Don't worry. Just be relaxed. Just wait for some time. It will come back to normal.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
