Prostate cancer and leukemia

I'm having a bit of a freak-out after seeing some blood tests last night. I have a low globulin count and high a/g ratio which are a possible indicator of leukemia. Has anyone else added a blood cancer to their battle against prostate cancer? I'm waiting to hear back from my doctor and I know I should take a deep breath. But you all probably understand what I'm feeling today. Thanks!

I know how you feel. My CEA numbers are high and a couple of years ago, my b12 numbers were off the charts high and when I googled it, it says it might be an indication of Leukemia. I totally forgot about it and you just reminded me now. We can go crazy worrying about these things. I wish I can give you an answer.

Hi. I have both CLL (stage 0) and PC (stage 4). I got diagnosed with both in April, 2018. Since my PC is advanced and CLL isn't, all my focus has been on learning more on PC.

I had high WBC so my doctor ordered a Flow Cytometry test which confirmed CLL.
