Abnormal Blood Tests

I do not know where to post this question.
I have abnormal immunoglobulin tests and my doctor will not explain why.
I have leg pain and pitting edema in both legs that gets worse when walking.
I feel ill and get tired very easily, and have swollen lymph glands in my neck.

Here are my test results...they do not show the what the normal % range for Lymphs is for some of them and I do not know if mine are normal or not...but my CD3/CD8 % is only 11,   and my CD16/56 % Lymphs and CD19% Lymphs is only 14, and this seems low...

Can anyone tell me what my blood tests mean?

Hi,
I understand your concern regarding your test results. What are the symptoms present? While some of the blood tests have abnormal results, other factors such as your medical history, symptoms as well as other diagnostic test results are important considerations also in determining the diagnosis. It is best that you discuss with your attending physician about this for proper evaluation. Take care and do keep us posted.

My symptoms are:

1-Feeling very ill and tired.  (A little exertion wears me out.)
2-Muscle pain (burning heavy pain) every time I exercise.
3-Leg pain  when I stand or walk, that gets progressively worse when ever I stand or walk, and is relieved when I sit or elevate my legs.
(ALSO...my nailfolds (the skin by my cuticles) swels and gets deep red and throbs when I walk. Other times it stays pale red.)
4-Swelling and pitting edema in both calves.
5-Constant stiff aching in my sacroiliac area.
