Dr. Brian Novick answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Released immune cell: It is a single band shown on a special test of aprotein plasma cells or white cells called lymphocytes. It sometimes causes symtpoms and is usually nothing to worry about. But i presume your dr. Did this..So speak to him/her about whether any other tests are needed..Or followup with a specialist.
