View allI recently did a random blood test because I was feeling kind of light-headed, and the results got me a bit worried. My neutrophil count is at 80%, lymphocytes are at 15%, and my total WBC count is 10500. I'm 18, so I'm not sure if these numbers are normal for someone my age. Could you help me understand what this might mean?

I recently had a routine CBC done and noticed my monocyte count is a bit high. The normal range is supposed to be 3.0 to 7.0, but mine came back at 7.9. Should I be worried about this? I did the test in the evening after fasting for 14 hours. Could that have affected the results?

I'm working as a receptionist at a clinic, and I came across a report where a 38-year-old lady had her platelet counts highlighted as high. The normal range listed was 1.5 to 4.5 lakhs, but I'm a bit unsure about what count is actually considered too high. Could you explain what qualifies as a high platelet count?

A count above 4.5 lakhs would be considered high, and it can indicate conditions like inflammation, infection, or certain medical disorders. It's important to investigate further to understand the cause.
