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.

Answer to Question 2

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.
