What Causes Elevated Monocytes In Blood While Having Anemia?
Hi, I'm 18 years old and suddnely Have been diagnosed as an anaemic after doing some blood tests but at the same time my monocytes was a little bit high. So I want to know is it high because I'm anaemic or there is another underlying issue I need to know and thanks.
Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern. Monocyte count is high in various conditions like infectious mononucleosis, viral infection, malaria etc. No need to worry about that. Slight increase in monocytes count is seen without any disease. You should go for peripheral smear examination and anemia profile and start treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.
