A normal platelet count is between 150,000 - 400,000 platelets per microliter (mcL). Some labs represent this number as 150-400. Depending upon how they represent their findings your platelet count may be either high (500,000), or may be very low (500 as shown). Most labs will show an H or L next to any abnormal values shown on a report that is either High or Low. The best thing to do is consult with your doctor.
