    Hello,

    I’m new here. I received my blood test report from my first oncologist visit. My ANC, Neutrophils, and Basophils along with Co2 were high. My lymphocytes were low.

    Can someone help me understand what this means?

    Angela, I am a patient, but i’m also a nurse. not an oncology nurse so keep that in mind. did you get normal ranges with your results? what is your total WBC count? What did your doctor tell you?

    I haven’t talked to my doctor yet. I am scheduled for an appointment Thursday. I guess I’m just anxious.

    your neutrophils are quite high. have you had a bone marrow biopsy yet?

    No I haven’t. I have had a mammogram and ultrasound last Thursday. Yesterday I had a CT scan of chest and abdomen at the cancer diagnostic center. But I don’t have any results from them yet.

    hard to know what everything means until you get all your results back. they may want to do a bone marrow biopsy. i know you’re worried and anxious, i completely understand. hang in there for 2 more days. let me know how you do <3
