I am carrying this over for Dr. Ruth:

Bloodwork looks insulinomic to me.=A0 High lymphocytes on a CBC aren't some=
thing I put a lot of diagnostic value on.=A0 First of all, often the blood =
draw itself can lead to erroneous numbers (my suspicion for the platelets t=
oo), the total white count is not elevated, and I would want to see an acco=
unt of a blood smear as well as just a count - what is the appearance of th=
ose lymphocytes?=A0 But you really can't diagnose lymphoma from peripheral =
blood and a CBC.

=A0

Insulinoma is my first thought here.=A0 If you could forward this, I'd appr=
eciate it - I'm really swamped and not sure I'll get to the actual list tod=
ay.

=A0
