NanLaew Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 Did you get these tests done standalone at a lab with their auto-diagnosis or, have you discussed this with your regular doc, GP, etc.? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are the symptoms? @Ralf001 is very good. He's a frequent contributor over in the motors forum too. "What does it mean when your monocytes are high? A high monocyte level may indicate inflammation, infection, blood disorders, and other health issues. Along with other types of white blood cells, monocytes are a key element of your immune response. High levels can result from a range of issues, including: leukemia." "Should I be worried if my monocytes are high? A high monocyte count is a potential sign of many different medical conditions. It's often linked to infectious diseases like mononucleosis or an autoimmune disease like lupus. Some medications can cause monocytosis. It's also linked to conditions such as blood disorders and certain cancers." Google (and your doctor) is your friend.

KhunLA Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 (edited) I'd wait till next month's test and compare. Being you WBC went from 8-6-9, I doubt it would be HIV+, or anything serious. If it is something serious, then you are catching it early...maybe. Simply means your immune system is a bit busier than most. Why the monthly blood test, P4P & no condom use ?

EVENKEEL Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 If it were me, I'd commence with weekly blood tests. Just to be careful. I'd say either TB or HIV. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be elevated if you had leukemia. With chronic leukemia, patients can go for years without any ill effects. Once a month is excessive, once a year is normal unless a health condition indicates a higher frequency of testing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
