@loribmt Thank you for your message. This is new to me, and hearing from you is comforting. I had this blood test done by my NP as my oncologist requested a yearly test. Now the NP’s office let me know of this result. I don’t what kind of blood test I had. I’m hoping my oncologist will contact me, or maybe I should contact him? I live in a small town, and he’s located 60 miles from me. I’m 81 years old.

@kandyburke. Given the same situation, if this were me, I’d call the oncologist office to see if they’ve gotten the recent lab results. That it was noted by your NP there was a change, an elevation in the lymphocytes and you’re wondering if this is concerning. It may turn out it’s not a significant change, but it’s not fair to be left wondering…you’d like clarification.

Have you had any changes symptoms or your health over the past year? Do you know if the lab results from your NP’s office are forwarded to your oncologist for review?
