p.s. I didn't say go to the cancer forum because I think you have it but because they may be able to interpret the flow cytometry results. I don't know how to do that.

Thanks, but I still don't know much about flow cytometry results. Try to ask your doctor the significance of these results.
thanks,

Hi, do you have your normal ranges for these tests?

I only know about microbiology and infectious disease and cannot advise you on cancer. There is a cancer community if you want to write on their site.

If your IgM is low it may make you get more infections. But a lot of people get a lot of colds per year and it is normal. Going by the general rules for IgM yours isn't really that low. 29 is the low range. It doesn't mean you have cancer it can mean a lot of things. This is a question for a doctor and we are not doctors on here. What has yoru doctor said?

The ESR is a general marker for inflammation so it can mean anything. I don't know much about the flow cytometery results you gave.

The symptoms of tired weakness and headache can be a lot of things. So I can't say based on that.

You might get more information on the cancer forum.
