Today my wife 12 week blood report has come. All values are within the normal range except the WBC count, which is slightly higher than the standard range. The normal range is 4000 to 11000 and her result is 12800. Is this normal?

I have 3950 white blood cells and my blood report says that red blood cells are concentrated only in certain regions. What additional blood checkups do I need? How should I proceed with diagnosing this?

Hi, my son is 3 years old and weighs 15 kg. He had no problems at birth. Last month, he was having wheezing sounds in his chest, and the doctor prescribed an inhaler for 14 days. Now he is fine. Today, his blood report shows mild eosinophilia with an absolute eosinophil count of 584, eosinophils 8 percent, monocytes 9 percent, lymphocytes 51 percent, absolute lymphocyte count 3723, platelets adequate, and the remaining values, including IgE, are normal. We stopped the inhaler today as per the doctors prescription. I want to know what mild eosinophilia means, what the treatment is, and whether we should stop or continue the medicine since he currently has no cough or cold?
