1. The Reed-Sternberg cells are a diagnostic of Hodgkin's disease.
2. Lymphocytes are naturally found in the bone marrow.
3. Neutrophils are naturally found in the blood to help fight infections.
4. Bacteria in the urine is not a confirmation of Hodgkin's disease.

When PFM readings are in the yellow zone, this indicates caution. Medication may need to be increased, or there may be an acute episode in progress.
