Question 1

what could a high lymphocyte test result mean for someone with lupus?

Accepted Answer

Not specific: This test result is not lupus-specific.

Question 2

what could a high lymphocyte and low neutrpjils means if you have lupus?

Accepted Answer

Maybe nothing: These levels fluctuate wildly even from hour to hour, often with no obvious cause. They are never more than a small part of any medical puzzle

Question 3

i am sle lupus patient.my blood lymphocytes percentage has been 48% (high) and mchc 31% ( low ) 2 times on past other counts are normal.indications?

Accepted Answer

Means nothing: Lupus patients often run a relatively low absolute neutrophil account because of autoimmunity. That's the number to watch. Only if it goes way-low is it a danger. I'm glad you're proactive about this.  Best wishes.

Question 4

tested ana+ 1:160 2xs ena nrml then ana neg lymphocytes always low and neutrophils high suddenly nrml  mcv nrml but anemic does that mean lupus ?

Accepted Answer

Need to examine: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that,  one would need to examine you and look at all other data to arrive at a meaningful conclusion.

Question 5

lymphocyte count was 1.3 (borderline low) a month ago and is now 1.9. confused? experiencing lupus like symptoms with neg tests

Accepted Answer

Inadequate info: Just lymphocyte count is insufficient information to provide an opinion. All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that.

Question 6

syphillis positive but bf neg. he's the only guy i've ever been with. low absolute lymphocytes 708 range is 850 up on cbc test. could it be lupus?

Accepted Answer

False pos test?: It sounds like you might have a biological false positive test, i.e. you don't really have syphilis. And it sounds like you might already know that false pos syphilis tests sometimes occur in lupus and other autoimmune diseases. This is a complex situation -- discuss with your doctor. see an infectious diseases or STD specialist if the positive test is confirmed as syphilis. Good luck!

Question 7

what does a cbc look like when you have lupus? is the wbc, neutrophil and lymphocyte low?

Accepted Answer

See below: It can be but there are other conditions that can cause similiar findings as well.

Question 8

persistent rash that comes back after antihistamine dose, low wbc, reactive lymphocytes. not ebv and lupus. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Rash:  These could be hives if they respond to antihistamines and mostof them are of unknown nature, they come and go as please. An allergist can give you some guidance

Question 9

does lupus or multiple sclerosis cause a drop in the lymphocyte count mine is at 4% and my neutrophils is at 86% i also have weight loss fatigue ?

Accepted Answer

Drugs: Many of the drugs used to treat lupus or MS can cause lymphopenia. Those diseases themselves seldom do.

Question 10

can iga and igg deficiencies occur in bone cancer? low white blood cells, low abs lymphocytes & low anion gap? lupus ruled out. a lot of pain hips, spine, lower back, collarbone. going for bone scan. maybe bone marrow aspiration after. thank you?

Accepted Answer

Low IgA and IgG: Sounds like a difficult situation, low levels of IgA and IgG can happen with bone marrow invasion. As well as low white blood cells. A very thorough evaluation as you have plan is very important depending on those results you can look at other causes.
Best for you, and complete your testing.
