High lymphocytes

Good morning!

I’ve been going through a flare that feels like it’s lasting forever so my rheumatologist sent me that day for bloodwork. He called me later to tell me I need to follow up with a hematologist. My lymphocytes have been consistently high but I guess they were especially high. He’s always just told me that was another inflammation marker.

I made my appointment for mid-September and I know I’ll be anxious until then.

Anyone have any experience with something like that? Any ideas what to expect?

Thanks!
