Brief Answer:
YOU CANNOT HAVE LEUKEMIA!

Detailed Answer:
Hi!

Thanks for the feedback.

For a person to have leukemia, we need atleast one of the followings:

1. immature leukocytes

2. high WBC total count

3. abnormalities in Hb% and platelet counts

None is there in your reports; therefore I'm very happy to inform that you are not having leukemia or blood cancer.

Best wishes!

Brief Answer:
REPEAT CBC THEN AFTER 3-6 MONTHS

Detailed Answer:
Hi!

There is hardly any chance that your blood picture would get changed that much so drastically as the CBC report is absolutely fine!

Still, if you are worried do a bi-annual only 'PERIPHERAL SMEAR' examination and that is sufficient to comment if anybody is having any kind of hematological problem especially blood cancer; now just relax!

Wishing you good health ahead,
