What does it mean if my eosinophil count is at 14? I'm not taking any medication right now and I'm a bit worried if this is something dangerous. Can you help me understand this?

Recurrent Epididymal Cysts
Recurrence
- Common phenomenon: Recurrence of epididymal cysts is not uncommon, especially if the underlying cause is not addressed.
- Possible reasons: Recurrence may be due to incomplete removal of the cysts, spermatocele, or other underlying conditions.
Treatment Options
- Surgical removal: Surgical excision of the cysts is a common treatment approach.
- Sclerotherapy: Injecting a sclerosing agent into the cyst to shrink it.
- Observation: Monitoring the cysts with regular ultrasound check-ups if they are small and asymptomatic.
Next Steps
- Consult a urologist: Schedule an appointment with a urologist to discuss treatment options and determine the best course of action.
- Imaging studies: Undergo imaging studies, such as ultrasound, to confirm the diagnosis and assess the size and number of cysts.
- Treatment plan: Work with your urologist to develop a personalized treatment plan.

I recently got my blood test results back and while most of my levels are normal, my EST came in at 65. I'm a 21-year-old female and the report mentioned a 'normocytic normochromic blood picture.' I'm a bit confused and curiouswhat exactly does a normocytic normochromic blood picture mean? Is this something I should be worried about?
NORMOCYTIC NORMOCHROMIC BLOOD PICTURE means that the size and color of your red blood cells are normal. This is a good sign as it indicates that your red blood cells are healthy and functioning properly. In your case, with an Erythrocyte Sedimentation Rate (ESR) of 65, it may indicate inflammation or infection in your body.
