I was just diagnosed with high granulocytes in doing some routine bloodwork, and wondering what this indicates. I DID have lung cancer and had a right upper lobectomy two and a half years ago, with no further treatment as the prognosis was so good. Also, last August i had a kidney stone procedure, came home that day, and the next day back to the hospital for a week with a very bad infection that they were worried could lead to sepsis. I m concerned that IG could be related to one of those experiences.
