Blood results

I’m really confused. Will a doctor tell you straight away if it’s a concern. I’ve had three blood tests in two months. I was first diagnosed being anemic. I also had a blood test on the wed and now I was referred to a hematilogist on Friday by the doctor and I am awaiting an appointment. That blood count showed high blood platelet but within range of 440. I have had sytoms Of upset stomachs and bloatness so I’ve been told the doctor wants advice from the hematologist. Would the doctor tell me if they think it was something bad or would they await from Further tests.
