High Eosinophils and Basophils

High Eosinophils and Basophils was created by PoppyLapine
I was diagnosed last year with ITP and have done a multitude of CBCs. My platelets have stayed between the 30s and 50s, so happy with that. But I have noticed that my absolute eosinophils and basophils have been high, like at least 2/3rds of the time. I'm still relatively new to ITP, so is this "normal"? Has anyone else had this reading on their CBC? Or is it totally unrelated? I have my routine appointment with my Hematologist tomorrow, so I'll ask him his thoughts on it, but I was just curious on other peoples exsperiance.

  • ITP since 2014. Retired nurse. My belief is empower patients to be involved as much as possible in their care. Read, read, read & ALWAYS question medics about the evidence base they use.
