thanks anu......ya... i agree his platelet count has been low (on the borderline i.e. 1.5 lakhs only) since his surgery.....
and the doctor yesterday said that since his dengue fever was detected well in time..i.e. the 2nd day itself, there is no need to worry and above all no need for hospitalisation (that was my biggest concern)..... he also said that his fever would be over in around 5 days and that we should not worry about the platelet count since the body is responding to medicine, and so once the viral is over, platelet would start getting back to normal....
my god....maine tum logon ko kitana pareshan kia na kal........am sorry for that...was really very anxious.............
and above all.....thanks to all of you for your precious wishes, comforting posts, advices, and your valuable time as well......thanks to all of you .......
