A member asked:
My 7 year old son had bloodwork done two weeks ago and his monocyte levels were high. could this be from undiagnosed mono?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: Monocytes are best known in the general public as elevated during "mono", but mono is a viral illness and monocytes can be up in several different ones. It is not specific to that diagnosis.There are more specific only mono tests that can be done on blood, but are not usually ordered unless that is suspected.
