I am in a state of panic :(
Had a blood test at my request last week as keep getting little infections and things and is getting on my nerves.
Now I had to pick up a prescription so asked if they were back and receptionist brought them up on the screen and the screen was all red and said abnormal - and she said oh I need to get the gp to call you this afternoon so now I am in a total panic and have convinced myself in a few short hours that it's leukemia.
I wish she'd call me now :(

I am sorry you are in such a panic and hope the dr calls you soon.

Fingers crossed it's just something silly that's causing them to dip. Remember it will show as abnormal even it's 0.1 out of the 'normal' range x

I am sure if there was anything serious they would have made the effort to contact you rather than you having to ask. As Mrschurchill says even a minor deviation is classed as an abnormality and it may be something easily rectified.

Phew thanks. She just rang! Mrschurchill you were right! White cells slightly up but that's because I was getting over pneumonia, haemoglobin 11.8 and normal
is 12 so only slightly out and no treatment needed.
Thank you for being here xx
