I don’t think Steve Holland is on the list serve but I think he would say GATA2 is at least somewhat likely.  Often NK cells and monocytes are low.

In those 9 months, he reports being treated for 9-10 sinus infections. Prior allergy testing to common aeroallergens was negative.

One year later, he had a spindle cell carcinoma on his left ear requiring excision and grafting. Since then, he has had 2-3 basal cell carcinoma removed, and about 12 biopsy-proven squamous cell carcinomas.
