Low RBC, WBC Neutrophil absolute & high Lymph

I am concerned about my abnormal blood test and cant see a specialist for 2 months. Can you  please share your opinion. My mother is currently diagnosed with T-cell Lymphoma and my father is 1 year in remission of CLL (Leukemia) I have had to take care of both of them and so you can imagine my concern for this blood work that I had done recently because of some unpleasant symptoms of aches, malaise and fatigue.
WBC- 3.4
RBC-3.7
Hemoglobin-8.3 low
Hematacrit-26.7 low
MCV-71.2 low
MCH-22.1 low
MCHC-31.1 low
RDW-18.5 high
Lymphs- 53 high
Neutrophils absolute-1.30 low
ANA 80 high

Hi, have you read anything yet about what's called "Caregiver syndrome"?

Immune system effects are common with that, including susceptibility to infections, especially viral - which in turn can account for your cell counts. Unfortunately it's a condition not yet known about well enough in the world.

Your hemoglobin is really low, that alone can give you pronounced fatigue.
