Last September my cbc at my physical was all over the place. Low white count, low neutrophils, high monocytes. It continued for several months so I was referred to a hematologist. He did all of the tests including flow cytometry which showed a minimal 2% of monoclonal B cell lymphocytosis. So he called it MLUS. Monoclonol lymphocytosis of undetermined significance.
just went back this week and flow cytometry shows :no definitive B cell abnormal population identified. No abnormal T cels or myeloid cells identified. This info came through my portal I see th dr on Friday. Can MLUS just disappear? My cbc was good too. Did they mix up my blood with someone else’s. It is just weird to me that it would just go away? Anybody ever heard of this? Sorry post is so long.

Given that, below is a quote from a paper that says that MBL/MLUS can spontaneously disappear.
“What is the clinical outcome of MBL? Given that MBL is at least 10–100 times more common than CLL, it is clear that the majority of cases do not progress to CLL. MBL may spontaneously disappear, remain stable or progress to clinically recognizable CLL or other lymphoproliferative disease (LPD).”Overview of monoclonal B-cell lymphocytosis
Raleigh59 ,sorry I thought I responded to you that day but I obviously didn’t hit reply. I did not have any symptoms. I only had low white count high monocytes. Actually my cbc was off for about a month before I was referred out to Hematology.
