A member asked:
I have high levels of vitamin b12, ferritin, and folate in my blood in addition to atypical lymphocytes. does this mean i have leukemia or could it mean something else?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
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, elevated ferritin and B12 suggest chronic inflammation. None of the data you provided suggests leukemia. Wish you good health!
