My boyfriend went to see his oncologist at his yearly appointment he hasn't been well all year with lymph node coming and going they found a 1cm lymph node in his neck and has to have a ct scan in case there's anymore in his chest and stomach on Friday so hopefully there's none he had a letter about his visit blood count results haemoglobin 137 wcc 58 platelets 313 neutrophils 4.0 lymphocytes 53.5 which I don't understand these is it good or bad last year's in September was haemoglobin 140 wcc 42 lymphocytes 38 platelets 226 then December last year was haemoglobin 143 wcc 43 platelets 210 so if anyone could tell me if it's good or bad please that would be helpful thanks

Hi Clubland4ever,
To be honest you’ve set his levels out in a bit of a jumbled way but there hasn’t been a massive change in his levels over a year and they are pretty much in range except for the predictably raised lymphocyte and WBC (white blood count) which are part of the CLL course. Even they are not massively high in CLL terms, This link describes the normal ranges. Look at the absolute ranges not the percentages and you’ll see your boyfriend is doing ok number wise;

Enlarged nodes are also part and parcel of the CLL course and what you’re describing is exactly how I progressed so don’t be alarmed if they find internal nodes on the CT scan. It’s not unsurprisingly in CLL and much depends on size and if they are impacting on any organs. They’ll also check to see if his spleen is enlarged (I notice you’ve mentioned abdominal pain in the past). Again this isn’t something out of the norm in CLL.
Hope that helps,
