Blood tests getting worse?

[Dreamer1989]

Hi, I went to the GP’s in August due to prolonged headaches (now cleared up thanks to Amitriptryline) and had a blood test. Repeated the bloods 2 more times as things keep being flagged as over the limit. Waiting to hear from the GP but wondered if anyone else would panic from results like these? I have no other symptoms, no night sweats, pain, no raised lymph nodes.

Bump

Are you a smoker OP?

Never smoked.

so the GP wants to check my lymph nodes tomorrow before a haematology referral.

You're only a tiny, tiny amount "over".

Remember, when they decide the "normal" range for these things, some people will always fall outside of those - having abnormal results doesn't necessarily mean anything, it could just be perfectly normal for you. Also, our bloods change constantly - you could do a test at 9am and another at 9pm and get two different results.

Your GP is right to refer you but try not to be too concerned, there's nothing there that massively stands out.

Thank you - I do have a raised lymph node in my neck that GP found - I hadnt found it when I gave myself a cursory check!
