Hello doctor, my husband blood test report shows monocytes at 11 percent. Could you please explain what this means? What could be the reason for it, and what steps should I take next? I am really worried.

Mildly high, may indicate past infection or mild inflammation. Usually not serious unless other counts are abnormal.

I started feeling unwell with body aches and a temperature of 100F. I took paracetamol, and my temperature returned to normal, but then I developed a cough and mild sore throat. In the morning, I felt cold and my temperature rose to 102F. I took paracetamol again, which brought it down, but the fever returned by 11 am. I consulted a physician and have attached his prescription and test report. After taking the prescribed medicines, I felt better, but I still feel very weak. Last night, I experienced restlessness, excessive sweating, and a rapid heartbeat for a few minutes. I am unsure what happened.

My 20 month old baby has been having a fever for the past week, mostly in the evenings. The fever stopped for 2 days but then returned again. We have already done blood and urine tests, and both reports appear to be normal.

My blood test report shows that my erythrocytes are normocytic and normochromic. Is this serious? Please advise. Thank you.
