and if you makes you feel any better, I don't know of any way in which NHL would raise RBCs. Nor basophils, etc. In fact, counts often get reduced because the cancer cells crowd out production of normal blood cells (in the marrow).

whatever's going on is not likely NHL

hi, with such an odd array of raised values, I'd first wonder if the tests were botched somehow.
