Momma's blood work came back with 0.6 for immature granulocytes - the range should be 0.0 - 0.3. She is incontinent. Should I be concerned?

Could this be a UTI or something more serious? The doctor didn't say anything - as far as I know and did not run a urine test?

I just checked and yes elevated immature granulocytes happen in response to infection. I learned something new today. I imagined before that they left the marrow in mature form.

It could be something. Her doctor will probably want to follow it to make sure her bone marrow is performing normally. I wouldn't expect elevated immature granulocytes from a UTI, but there are many things I don't know.
