Yes family doctors can inject immunoglobulin shots. However they may just have IgG and don't know if they have IgM. IT still might help with your immune status. There may be some other new immune boosting medicines. I'm not sure for bacterial. I know they can use interferon for viruses but it won't help for TB or bacterial disease. Interferon is very expensive. I don't feel very smart since I haven't been working due to a back injury and tendonitis, knee injury, just got over a blood clot but it is gone now. etc. But it is good to share knowledge and help people on here. That is why I am here. I hope to have good health too. I appreciate your good wishes, I need them too, LOL.

It could be a lot of things. The platelet count is usually low and the White count and Lymphocytes really high. I wouldn't worry about that. Do you have it in the family? Are the lymphocytes the only thing you see that are slightly high? Some infections will do that too.

It probably is chronic sinusitis. My husband's family has a lot of CLL. Your blood tests would be off. The platelet count and lymphocytes. Why do you think you would have this?
