Low Platelet Count

Has anyone been diagnosed with a low platelet count that they suspect is a result of Celiac Disease?  I have had a low platelet count my whole life (around 90,000). I had a bone marrow biopsy done 20 yrs ago and it showed only minor irregularities that they thought were due to nutritional deficiencies, specifically B12 and vitamin D.  Nobody ever tested me for Celiac of course.  Now I’m wondering if there is a connection to Celiac.  After being gluten free for almost a year, my platelet count had not improved.  Has anyone experienced an improvement in platelet count after going gluten free?  If so, how long did it take to see an improvement?

Although I don't think it's a common symptom of celiac disease, I have heard of low platelet count before as a symptom, and here is a search of our site where this has been mentioned:

      Refractory Coeliac Disease research to reduce anxiety

      By RMJ · Posted

      Is there a minimum time since diagnosis of refractory celiac disease?  I really hope I’m not eligible for your study, but looking for it is one reason my gastroenterologist suggested an endoscopy. I’m having it later this month, due to still having GI symptoms on a strict gluten free diet.

      Anyone diagnosed with Refractory Coeliac Disease can participate (they do not need to be in the UK but would need to be able to speak and understand English as the intervention is facilitated in English language)

      Is this only for those in the UK, or can anyone diagnosed with celiac disease participate?
