High platelets means a condition in which the blood contains more platelets than normal. Platelets are small blood cell fragments that assist in blood clotting. In a healthy person, there are usually 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. A high platelet count can be identified through routine blood tests.
Disorders of the bone marrow and systemic conditions can cause an elevated platelet count. An elevated platelet count is known as thrombocytosis. A high platelet count can signal a more serious blood problem known as a myeloproliferative disorder
Lyme disease can cause a high white blood count.
