Can blood type change?

Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors

I'm a bit worried because my recent blood test showed that I have mild eosinophilia, and my monocytes count is right at the upper limits. Here are some more details: Neutrophils are at 47, lymphocytes are 33, eosinophils are 9, monocytes are 10, and basophils are 1. The absolute counts are 4400 for neutrophils, 3000 for lymphocytes, 900 for eosinophils, and 1000 for monocytes. Also, my platelet count is 269,000. Could you help me understand what this might mean for my health? Should I be concerned about these levels?

I'm looking at my blood test results and it says my lymphocyte percentage is 50. I'm not sure what this means for my health. Could you help explain what this indicates and advise me on what steps I should take next?
