I want to understand how to interpret the results of my CBC and metabolic panel. Some values came back abnormal, and I am unsure if they are concerning. My results are: Neutrophils: 84.6 percent (normal range 42.2 to 75.2) Lymphocytes: 8.6 percent (20.5 to 51.5) Eosinophils: 0.3 percent (0.7 to 7.8) Calcium: 10.3 mg/dL (8.4 to 10.2) Alkaline phosphatase: 121 (40 to 120) For reference, I have hypothyroidism and hirsutism. I am taking levothyroxine and spironolactone, and recently stopped hydrochlorothiazide.

This neutrophil dominance may indicate recent infection or inflammation. Calcium borderline high. ALP mildly raised. Please take a CRP and Serum PTH test. Take these to assess inflammation and calcium regulation.

Take a CRP Test (C - Reactive Protein) Test or Take a PTH Test (Parathyroid Hormone) Test

My friend was diagnosed with dengue on 27th May and has since been undergoing treatment. At this point, he no longer has a fever or any major symptoms. However, his platelet count remains low, and he has developed rough, dry skin around his nose and ears. We have attached his most recent blood report for your review. Could you kindly check the report and guide us.

My blood test report shows 0 percent monocytes. Is this a cause for concern? What possible medical conditions could be associated with this finding? Other counts, including lymphocytes, are within the normal range, but eosinophils are 7 percent.
