I am a little concerned as I have lost 25 pounds since November. I have an underactive thyroid so I have never been able to lose weight. In speaking with my dr. she ordered lab work, a cat scan, and ultrasound. No masses found. I am very tired, I just recently started having night sweats on occasion. I have never experienced that before. My Abs Neutrophil Cnt is 8.25, Neutrophils 79.3 and my Lymphocytes 13.7. My mother passed of lung cancer, my grandmother of breast and brain cancer. My aunt has a form of leukemia. Unfortunately my dr. is out of the office until the 17th. I am just curious if I should be concerned about the signs I have been having.   Age 60 Gender Female Duration 2 monhs Medications none Conditions Hypothyroid, Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy     Reply to this email to answer, or Login to see all questions.

I would like to order LDH and other screening test
But what was the results of the ct scan
Also you need another screening tests

High neutrophils is an indicator of possible bacteria infection. You may need to be on antibiotics. Repeat CBC after treatment.

An elevated neutaphil count can be consistent with a bacterial infection. I would follow up with your doctor again and keep looking for an explanation for how you feel.
