I'm a bit concerned about my recent blood test results showing high lymphocytes. Is this something I should be worried about? Plus, I've been losing weight unexpectedly. Could these things be connected?

High lymphocytes in the blood, known as lymphocytosis, can be caused by various factors such as infections, autoimmune disorders, and certain types of cancer like lymphoma. Since you are also experiencing excessive weight loss, it is important to further investigate the underlying cause. I would recommend consulting with a healthcare provider for a thorough evaluation. In the meantime, maintaining a healthy diet and lifestyle is important.

I'm a bit worried because I did a CBC recently and found my monocyte level is at 13, though my WBC count is at a normal 7000. I stumbled upon some discussions online saying that high monocytes can be linked to cancer, and now I'm pretty anxious about it. I also made a mistake in an earlier message where I said my WBC count was 4200, and I'm not sure how to correct that. Do I have any reason to be seriously concerned here?
