Thank you Jordan, we have all learned so much about something we never planned. I am hoping that the immature granulocytes are from the bold below rather than a relapse. I had corresponding steroid use (prednisone) with an infection and a surgery during this time of the increased immature granulocytes. We'll see with the BMB.
"Increased immature granulocytes occur accompanied by an increase in neutrophils in the following conditions:"
Bacterial infections
Acute inflammatory diseases
Cancer (particularly with marrow metastasis)
Tissue necrosis
Acute transplant rejection
Surgical and orthopedic trauma
Myeloproliferative diseases
Steroid use
