hematology
I went to a Brazilian hospital because I am sick. I was told that I have no infection, but my fever was 39oC. I do not believe that there is no infection. What could be causing this along with other symptoms (no cough no colds though) - chills, headache, dizziness, lethargy, vomiting, high blood pressure, etc.
I went to the hospital 2x. metamielocitos - 0 on both days. Bastonetes - 2 then 1 (range is 2-15%). Segmentados 72 then 59 (range 39-55). Lymphocytes - 16 then 29 (range 30-60%). everything else is within range.

Band and Seg (or Poly)
Bastonete: forma do núcleo de neutrófilo imaturo; bastão – neutrophil/ band cells (slightly immature neutrophils),
Segmentado: neutrófilo maduro
Neutrophil: A type of white blood cell, specifically a form of granulocyte, filled with neutrally-staining granules, tiny sacs of enzymes that help the cell to kill and digest microorganisms it has engulfed by phagocytosis. The mature neutrophil has a segmented nucleus (it is called a seg or poly) while the immature neutrophil has band-shape nucleus (it is called a band). The neutrophil has a lifespan of about 3 days.
