Hodgking's lympho with a infection

Im having a hodgkings lympohoma. And i got a infection too. I got antibiotic for ma infection. Befor antibiotic my crp was 137 and wbc is 17. Now after antibiotic still my crp is 113 and wbc is 15.6. Is that mean still im having the infection ? Is there any test to confirm that? Because as i know crp and wbc could be elevate because of lymphoma. So is there any definitive way to confirm that. Can a blood cultuer test confirm that?

Hi, I don't know the answer for sure and so it's risky to speculate on something like that. But it sounds like it could be just from infection.

When is your next CBC?
