Worried about CBC

[charlenec]

My CBC counts were great in December 07. Everything normal. One month later, January 08 I had a rash and was tested for Lyme which was negative but they discovered Parvo Virus. My WBC were at 3.0 at that time. Now I am still having CBC issues and am finally being referred to a Hematologist. I did have an HIV test about a month ago that was negative and have had no exposures. I am not on any medications except for Metoprolol ( for Atrial Fibrillation ) and an aspirin a day. My counts are as follows:

WBC 3.3 (low)
RBC 3.42 (low)
Hemoglobin 12.1 (normal)
Hematocrit 34.4 (low)
MCV 100.6 (high)
MCH 35.3 (high)
MCHC 35.1 (normal)
Platelet Count 343 (normal)
Neutrophil % 57.3 (normal)
Lymphocyte % 27.0 (normal)
Monocyte % 7.9 (normal)
Eosinophil % 5.1 (high)
Basophil % 2.5 (high)
Neutrophil # (ANC) 1.9 (normal)
Lymphocyte # 0.9 (low)
Monocyte # 0.3 (normal)
Eosinophil # 0.17 (normal)
Basophil 0.1 (high)

Iron 114
TIBC 314
TSH 4.97
Free T4 0.62
Ferritin, Serum 28

What is up? This is driving me crazy and my hematology appt. is in 3 weeks!

Thanks.

Hi,

They have repeated it many times over the last 5 months and it is not transient. They want to rule out cancer in general but did mention leukemia in general.

They said they were ruling out leukemia? Why?? The low WBC count?? Maybe you had a virus??
Have they repeated it?

I am adding on to my original post. I have been referred to an oncologist and am pretty nervous they will find cancer. I don't have any swollen glands that I can tell but my doctor did mention wanting to rule out leukemia. I am kind of freaking out as I am 35 with 4 small children to look after. Any insight would be appreciated, thanks.
