My blood report shows that my lymphocytes percentage is 59 and my absolute lymphocyte count is 3500 per microlitre. Is it dangerous or not. What is the alarming level of absolute lymphocyte count?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
A lymphocyte count of 3500 per microlitre is on the higher side but not necessarily dangerous. This can happen during viral infections, stress, or mild inflammation. The percentage 59 percent is high, but absolute count matters more. Concerning levels are typically greater than 5000 to 6000 per microlitre without infection, or less than 1000 per microlitre. Recheck after 2 to 3 weeks if no clear cause is found. If still high, consult a physician.
Dr. Siri Suggests...
Take a CBC Test (Complete Blood Count) Test or Take a ESR Test (Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate) Test

View allI am suffering from a very minor fever-like tendency for about a week. It goes away with PCM and sometimes without taking it. The temperature is very minor and gives a normal reading, but I feel very inactive because of it. I did my routine health check up 2 weeks ago and the blood report was quite normal. I do not know what has caused this problem?

It has been almost 2 months that I have been suffering from cough and cold. My blood report indicates a cold infection. Even after completing the course of antibiotics, I have not found much relief. I still have terrible coughing fits at times, which sometimes cause me to choke. What could be the reason, and what should I do next?
Answered by Apollo Doctors
I have been having repeated CBC tests over the past 9 months. My WBC count has consistently been between 12,500 to 14,000 and platelets between 100,000 to 150,000, but on two occasions when I had a peripheral blood smear, the report was normal. Tests for HCV, HBsAg, RBC, HIV, Dengue, VDRL, MP, and Vidal were all normal. I do not have any significant symptoms. Could you please advise what I should do going forward? Can I consider myself healthy, or is there a need for further investigation?
