Default Crazy bloodwork

I have been doing well on Remicade. I knwo that the rest of that day is shot as I am foggy feeling and the next day I am a little less than 100%. I just got my latest infusion yesterday. They did my bloodwork before giving it and my white blood count is low as well as a couple other numbers and my monocytes are high. I have always had numbers in the normal range except the occasional low calcium and iron. Anyone else have weird blood work. It is freaking me out. One of the logn term effects is a higher risk of lymphoma so I am always watching my numbers. Everything was normal a month ago when I had my colonoscopy.

Any help is great!
