What Does This Blood Test Report Signify?

MY HUSBAND HAS HAD ELEVATED WBC S LAST MONTH IT WAS 14.2 AND THIS MONTH IT WAS 12.0. HIS ABSOLUTE NEUTROPHIL S WERE 8904, HEMOGLOBIN 16.9 UP FROM 16.5, AND HIS HEMATOCRIT 50.5. HE HAS A CONSULTATION THE 21ST OF THIS MONTH WITH A HEMATOLOGIST. WE WERE WONDERING WHAT THIS COULD MEAN AND OF COURSE WE ARE WORRIED ABOUT LEUKEMIA.

Hi, dear.
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Your total wbc count is slightly high with high neutrophil count. So its just due to some bacterial infection. No chance of leukemia is thete. So no need to worry. Just be relaxed. Consult your routine doctor and take a course of antibiotics. You will be cured.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer.
Thanks for using health care magic.
Wish you a very good health.
