Hi @yogawithkimzen, The unique aspect of our Connect forum is being completely anonymous. We encourage open discussions here where other members might jump in to offer some perspective, guidance or encouragement. As my mom used to say frequently, “There’s nothing new under the sun.” Other members might be going through the same things you are. 🙂

Now that you’ve also mentioned there are other symptoms with your health, along with what you shared initially, a second opinion is a really good idea. Plus, as @jerrlin mentioned, finding a doctor that’s a good fit for you is especially important. Hopefully you get some answers and if you do, please feel free to share if you need some feedback.
I’m happy you found Connect. There’s over 70 health related groups in the forum so I hope you take a peek and pop into any discussion where you can share your life experiences to benefit others.
Are you a yoga instructor?

Lori knows me from our own corespondents for my health problems. Although Lori gave you good advice, I must compare you numbers with my own personal health issues which are extensive. So take my advice as a learning experience. After having 4 blood clots from November 2021 to March 2022, I learned a valuable lesson. Clot #1 ended up in my right lung as a pulmonary embolism, a very dangerous and painful condition that could have killed me or caused a major stroke. Clot #3 was large enough that it almost blocked the stent in my Left Atrial Chamber. It only took seconds for my brain to feel the lack of blood and oxygen and I immediately realized I was going to pass out and most likely die. Luckily, my blood pressure must have skyrocketed and shattered the clot as I felt it exit my heart. I tell you this information because my lab tops out platelet count at 400. So according to them, your platelet count is above normal.

Females are prone to throw clots, especially with high platelet counts. My estrogen level spiked because my hormones are all messed up because of a birth accident. My Endocrinologist (hormone specialist) has me on what’s called hormone replacement therapy. So I’m just saying your platelet count is high but it does fluctuate because it takes platelets 10 days to mature. I doubt you’re in any danger of throwing a blood clot but the higher the level, it increases your chances of it happening. Just keep an eye on your platelet count and you should be okay. My last platelet count was 190, my lab has 140 as the low level. I also have a blood condition that affects it.

Now for your other blood levels and what I’ve learned from mine. As I said, I have a blood condition that’s known as MGUS. It’s caused by precancerous cells progressing towards cancer. It’s already causing cells to mutate and I’ll either end up with Multiple Myeloma or a rare form of Non Hodgkin’s Lymphoma. Now I’ll explain why I told you about my MGUS. You see, while researching about my upcoming cancer, I checked out about B & T blood cells. They are the cells that your body makes to defend your body from invading bad cells. From what you mentioned your levels are almost opposite of mine and are all part of the antibodies our body makes. B Cells are defending our bodies against any invaders but are destroyed because they may not have the power to kill them especially to a new invader like Covid 19. Once our bodies defense network make antibodies to destroy the invader the T Cells will recognize it and kill them if they invade again. That the problem with the Covid Variants, a new invader our body’s antibodies may not have the power to kill them. I’ve had Covid 5 times so far, including the last one BA.5.

So now for your lesson. When you lymphocytes are below normal and your neutrophils are above normal, it means your body is fighting a battle. In my case, it’s fighting a dangerous enemy, cancer cells trying to find a home. The other cells you mentioned are the baby cells trying to mature. All my young lymphocytes are low and all my neutrophils are high, along with all the other cells that end in “phils”. As you can see, your levels are in the normal range but you might have a mild inflammation issue somewhere in your body causing you to be concerned. So my advice, keep an eye on your B Cell levels, especially if your lymphocytes drop below normal and the neutrophils are above normal.

Now, not to scare you but some people have MGUS and don’t know it. It usually doesn’t cause symptoms and you can have it for 20 years before it becomes active. Even then, only 1 out of 100 people with MGUS progress into cancer. I’m the unlucky one. You can live your entire life with MGUS and not have a problem. I only learned I had it in 2019 at age 75 and never knew. Since you’re an activist for your body, like I am, keep alert for any change in your body. I learned in 2013 about precancerous cells inside me when a dermatologist remove two moles that were biopsied as precancerous. Hope I haven’t upset you, but you seem to be alert to any changes in you body and I just wanted to teach you what to look for. Take Care. Becky1024
