Hello, thanks for the query. Since the blood glucose is exceptionally high (400 mg) he should be put on Insulin Injections right away along with other oral anti-dian=betic drugs. For low platelet count depending upon the severity, either stroid or blood transfusion may be used. Also the cause for reduction should be identified and taken care. Thanks.
