I've got a high eosinophil count of 16 and my HDL is on the lower side at 31, while everything else seems to be normal. What should I do next?

I'm a bit concerned about my lab results. My RDW is 14.7, which I believe is normal, but my eosinophils are at 6.1, and I'm wondering if thats on the higher side since the normal range is 1 to 6. My MPV is 11.7 fL, which seems normal since the range is 7.2 to 11.1. Also, my platelet count is 207,000 and normal, but Im still curious about the eosinophils being slightly elevated. Could this mean something I should be worried about? Any insight would be really helpful.

I'm a bit concerned about my recent CBC test results. Everything seems normal except for my monocyte count, which is at 80.6 cellscu.mm, whereas I understand the normal range should start from 200. My total WBC is 6200 cellscu.mm, with neutrophils at 4327, lymphocytes at 1636, basophils at 24.8, and eosinophils at 130.2. My platelet count is 303,000, and the peripheral blood smear showed a normocytic normochromic blood picture, so no issues there. Should I be worried about that low monocyte count? Is there something specific I should be looking into?

No immediate concerns based on this report. Your results seem to suggest that everything is within the typical range. Follow-up: If you are experiencing symptoms like fatigue, fever, or unexplained pain, you might want to follow up with your healthcare provider for further evaluation. A low monocyte count alone, especially with normal total white blood cell count and other parameters, is typically not a cause for concern. Monitor your health: Keep track of any changes in your health or any symptoms and consult a doctor if needed.
