Hi dear,
What was the total WBC count, platelet count and ESR? If these are normal, there is no fever, and he is playful&eating normally, we need not worry. Some viral illnesses(like mononucleosis) can cause lymphocytosis and tiredness for few weeks. So there is nothing wrong in waiting for 2 months.
Hope I have answered your query
Let me know if I can assist you further
