Question 1

are these normal bone marrow results ? neutrophilic myelocytes: 19(3.7-10.0%)
neutrophilic metamyelocytes: 8(2.3-5.9%) 
what does high mean

Accepted Answer

Need more info: 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, these results are not that far from normal. Why was bone marrow examination done? Do you have any symptoms?

Question 2

what is considered to be a high metamyelocyte count?

Accepted Answer

Metamyelocyte: Metamyelocyte's are not normal in blood counts.  Sometimes it happens when there is infection or bleeding because of overproduction of bone marrow. If persisting it is abnormal you might need checked out by a hematologist and might need a bone marrow biopsy.

Question 3

i had blood drawn and my metamyelocytes count was 99 dr is referring me to see a hematology dr. should i be worried and what does this means?

Accepted Answer

Metamyelocytosis: I agree that you should undergo a hematological evaluation. A value of 99% is very significant &amp; must be explained. Please let me know what your hematologist finds. Thank you very much.

Question 4

i am currently going through chemotherapy and my blood work yesterday showed that there are immature cells with the following info:
metamyelocytes:	3%
myelocytes:	4%
wbc: 5.8
what does this mean and is this something i should be concerned with?

Accepted Answer

Clinical context: 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, if you were not being treated with chemo, it would not have been of concern.   
Wish you good health!

Question 5

hx of sle. taking cellcept (mycophenolate mofetil).  cbc in december showed slightly elev myelocyte. yesterday i had 3% metamyelocyte seen. what's the next step? bone marr bx

Accepted Answer

Consider infection: Although SLE and Cellcept (mycophenolate mofetil) are associated with low white cell counts and even left shifted white counts with metamyelocytes and even myelocytes (and this could well be what is happening to you), one must also worry about infection which is more likely in an immunosuppressed patient like yourself. Do you have fever? You should see your rheumatologist and even a infectious disease doctor if febrile.

Question 6

experience inflammation/pain, low grade fevers & had these elevated lab results: rheumatoid factor 31 iu/ml,metamyelocytes 6% (prev elevated @ 1% since 2017), myelocytes 3%,hemoglobin 15.3,hemotocrit 45.3. do these labs indicate specific conditions?

Accepted Answer

: The presence of immature white cell precursors(Myelocytes and meta myelocytes) is not entirely normal unless there is serious infection which is causing high white cell count(WBC). So I would recommend that you obtain a complete blood count(CBC) and differential count which will give us a better assessment of your health and to rule out any chronic infectious or inflammatory condition.

Question 7

4yo labs wbc 3.1 mch 25.5 metamyelocytes 2  neutrophils 26 monocyte 23 eosinophils 1. has cold,croup. what does this bloodwork mean?

Accepted Answer

Mgt: It is important to correlate these values with her current symptoms. There are several conditions which may result in the values shown. Allergic disease may cause an elevation in eosinophil counts and cause respiratory symptoms.

Question 8

3-day-old nephew is in the nicu for mild respiratory distress. born at 38 weeks and small. mch of 38.3 pg, plt of 128 l, basophil 0.01, macrocytosis 2+, fasting blood glucose 2.6, nrbc/100 wbc of 9, and metamyelocyte 0.01. what does this all mean?

Accepted Answer

: In the absence of a full review of all the available data and exam, little can be said about the posted labs. They are not, by themselves, alarming or unusual for a 3 day old with respiratory distress. The best information will come from the docs managing the case.

Question 9

what is the normal range of glycine?

Accepted Answer

Many factors : Determine the normal range for serum glycine: age, gender, health history. See the image for the various ranges based on these factors.

Question 10

what is pus cells and its normal range?

Accepted Answer

Dead neutrophils: Pus is a combination of dead white blood cells, mainly neutrophils, fibrin and necrotic tissue. Pus is not normal, it is usually due to bacterial infection.
