High PDW and MPV
Hi,
I got blood test done and i got the report which says PDW(platelet distribution width) is 18.9fl which is 3.7 points higher than normal and MPV (mean platelet volume) is 1.5 points higher than normal. Even PLCR(Platelet to large cell ratio) is higher by 11.5points than normal. However MCV(Mean corpusuclar Volume) is normal. Could you please suggest what does it mean and is there a reason to worry?
1. What does high PDW, MPV and PLCR mean?
Thanks.
