I'm looking at my blood report and trying to understand what's going on. The TLC is at 16900, and it says Neutrophils are 82, while Lymphocytes are 15. There's also something about PCVHCt Hematocrit at 38.6 and MCHC mean crop Hb conc. Should I be concerned about any of these numbers? What do they imply about my health?

View allI'm a bit worried because my recent CBC test showed that my monocytes level is 13. My WBC count is normal at 4200, but I read online that having high monocytes can be related to cancer. Should I be concerned about this?
An elevated monocyte count does not always indicate cancer. Monocytosis can be caused by various factors such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and chronic inflammatory conditions. In your case, since your WBC count is within the normal range, it is less likely to be related to cancer. However, it is important to consult with a healthcare professional for further evaluation and to determine the underlying cause of the elevated monocyte count. If needed, your doctor may recommend further tests or monitoring.

I've been having problems with sleep disorders and noticed my skin's looking pretty pale. My doctor suggested I get a CBC, and while my hemoglobin is usually around 11, it dropped to 7.4 this time. The doctor couldn't believe the CBC report and asked me to redo it. The next morning, it went down to 7 with platelets at 629. I also had an abdomen pelvis ultrasound, but everything came back normal. Now, doctors keep passing me off to someone else. What could be going on?
