Hello and thanks for your query.
I shall make an effort to provide you with good professional recommendations specific to your questions.
I realize your Genital herpes is certainly long standing, but you would need to elaborate on the medical management undertaken in those 10 years. And what is the latest clinical examination findings/ latest doctor's impression about the lesions of the same. - I could then explain you the possible time frame of your doubts expressed in those blood tests. (Enumerate all the drugs/duration taken/treatments whether singly or repeated etc)
Grossly speaking, the elevated counts of lymphocytes, monocytes and leucocytes are medically in line with the infection you have, and viral herpes is a noted chronic infection that takes years for a complete revert back, even laboratory wise.
Usually, clinical signs manifest a certain load with Herpes, but the peculiarity with Herpes is - it is a dreaded virus infection which is known to lay latent/hidden without any clinical signs for years and may sometimes manifest clinically yet again after a long hiatus, if the immunity of patient comes down.
I would have to determine the gravity of your case, in order to comment further about the possibility of the levels coming down.
Yet again, I duly appreciate your query to me, I do hope that you have found something useful to help you and I shall be glad to answer any further apprehensions.
Sincerely,
