I reached out previously regarding my husband’s AL rising since 2020
He received his lab work back and this year the AL are 6.7 Last year they were 5.8.
We see the NP on 5/5 (our appointments are together). Can anyone give me some pointers on what we should say to her regarding this? Does having this increase over years primarily point to CLL? Do Primary Care offices run additional tests or do folks proceed immediately to a Hematologist Can allergies contribute to an increase in AL?
I feel like I’ve diagnosed him with this and we are both scared. How is it determined if the increased AL is actually cancer?
Thank you for any information

Thank you for your response.
We will definitely question why this hasn’t been investigated and ask to see a hematologist.
Thanks again
