Question 1

suspected  lymphoma  bloodwork supposedly  normal  but mpv high 11.2 &  glucose 65  low.  dizziness and a lot  of body  pain.  what can it be?

Accepted Answer

Why do you think so?: Unless you have symptoms of lymphoma like persistent fever and enlarged lymph nodes, it is hard to entertain lymphoma as your diagnosis. Go to a good doctor who knows something about lymphoma(an internist for a start) and find the answers.

Question 2

immature granulocytes high, 2.2 and mpv high, 13. went in to see if my thyroid is low.  no recent infections. concerned?

Accepted Answer

Lab tests: These values have little if any meaning unless you can describe the entire clinical picture.  Lab results by themselves seldom have relevant meanings.  Discuss with the doctor who ordered these.  These values, by the way, are unlikely to have any relationship to whether you are hypothyroid.

Question 3

high platelets low mpv high absolute lymphs? do these together show signs of leukemia and or lymphoma?

Accepted Answer

Incomplete 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. Having said that, what you have provided is not sufficient information to render a meaningful opinion. How high is the lymphocyte count? What is the morphology? Are there any enlarged lymph glands? It would be prudent to consult your doctor.

Question 4

healthy 54 yo woman sched 4 acdf c5-6. blood low 6.8 mpv & high 42 ptt. prothromb w/inr: inr 1.0 ratio; prothromb 10.7 secs. will this delay surgery?

Accepted Answer

Anemic: If ones hemoglobin is 6.8, that represents marked anemia.  It merits an evaluation prior to surgery.  The PTT is at upper normal range.

Question 5

my last blood work showed high wbc count, low mpv, high absolute neutrophils, high ch50, high c3c, and high c-reactive protein. is there any concern?

Accepted Answer

Inflammation: 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, what you described is consistent with inflammation, not necessarily an infection, it may be auto-immune inflammation.
Wish you good health!

Question 6

hi! i have mpv very high but patelets count normal! do i have to be worried about it? thank you

Accepted Answer

Platelets: MPV=mean (average) platelet volume. This is a fairly insignificant calculation from analysis of the blood by modern analyzers. It does not correlate with any known diseases when the platelet count is normal. So best to not worry about it.

Question 7

high mpv since january 2013, now at least 3 tests down in june 2013 mpv still high, what could it be?

Accepted Answer

May be nothing: What is the actual value? If all other findings are normal, you may leave it alone.
All lab results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the test is usually in the best position to do that.

Question 8

38 yo f : my mpv was high at 13.5, platelets @ 233. everything else in range. same results last year. is this a cause for concern? dr said they don't notice those results by itself, but i'm very worried?

Accepted Answer

: All laboratory/imaging 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, I agree with your doctor in that the finding is not a cause for concern.     Wish you good health!

Question 9

what does high mpv and high anion gap mean?

Accepted Answer

Nothing: Labs mean nothing in isolation. High MPV usually means nothing in any case unless the person is otherwise clearly sick. I raise my anion gap every time I exercise. Reference ranges are set so that several percent of healthy folks fall outside on either end. If your phyiscian isn't worried, stop worrying yourself. Best wishes.

Question 10

i got a blood test done last week and my mcv and mpv was high. also monocyte # was normal range but my monocyte % was high i dont understand how that can be. how can my monocyte number be normal but percentage be high? should i be concerned?

Accepted Answer

: This is entirely normal. For all WBC types, everything is normal if the total WBC is in the normal range, and if either number or percentage of particular types (like monocytes) is normal. This is no cause for concern, especially if you are outwardly healthy. Don't worry about it. If in doubt, check with the doctor who ordered your blood count. Good luck.
