Routine haematology, biochemistry and urinalysis show no changes specific for toxoplasmosis. However, during ''T. gondii'' infection, several features may be seen and could be suggestive. For haematology, these might include: non-regenerative anaemia, neutrophilic leucocytosis, lymphocytosis, monocytosis, neutropenia or eosinophilia. Biochemical profiles could show increased creatine kinase, ALT, SAP, bilirubin and total protein, and proteinuria and bilirubinuria may be revealed by urinalysis.<sup></sup>
