Hi!
Since you have bad taste in mouth and ulcers, H pylori infection and acid reflux should be looked into. Also you could be suffering from IBS, Crohn’s or celiac.
Monocytosis or high monocyte count is seen in subacute bacterial endocarditis, syphilis, viral infections, kala azar, malaria, Rocky Mountain spotted fever, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, IBS, lipid storage diseases, sarcoidosis etc.
A low albumin globulin ratio occurs due to:
• Globulin overproduction: as seen in autoimmune disease, MUGS, multiple myeloma. Your immunoglobulin levels may be going up.
• Low albumin production as seen in cirrhosis
• Albumin loss in urine as in kidney disease.
High MPV can be due to dehydration, or due to an inflammatory condition like rheumatoid arthritis. It is also increased in some bone marrow disorders like myeloproliferative disorders (polycythemia vera, essential thrombocytosis, idiopathic myelofibrosis and chronic myeloid leukemia). All known causes like myeloproliferative disorders of bone marrow, essential thrombocytosis, chronic myeloid leukemia, rheumatoid arthritis etc have to be looked into, and if need be bone marrow biopsy performed.
Based on the above results, you could be suffering from a gut inflammation or a liver or kidney infection. Please discuss with your doctor who can clinically correlate the lab results with your symptoms. You may also need more tests like iron hemoglobin and hematocrit, vitamin B12 levels etc. Take care!
The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you. The advice may not be completely correct for you as the doctor cannot examine you and does not know your complete medical history. Hence this reply to your post should only be considered as a guiding line and you must consult your doctor at the earliest for your medical problem.
