Detailed Answer:
Hello,
I'm not sure whether you're talking about an ordinary visit to the ER or about your blood tests - I had a look at them by checking your other recent questions.
If you're talking about your complete blood count then nothing is urgent there. Your lymphocytes count and percentage is a little higher than usual but this is something that commonly occurs for various benign reasons. We usually follow-up such patients and they usually get a normal complete blood count afterwards. Viral infection is a very common cause and it may have even occurred weeks before the blood test. If you don't have other signs of any particular disorder like significantly enlarged lymph nodes or spleen or liver then we usually just proceed with follow-up testing after a few weeks. This is not something that has to be dealt with at the ER. Just visit any doctor for a basic assessment and clinical examination.
If you're talking about an ordinary visit to the ER then there is nothing to worry about.
I hope I've answered your question. Please let me know if you need further assistance.
Kind Regards!


Yes
Detailed Answer:
Dehydration may indeed cause a falsely higher hematocrit and the rest of the indices as well. Dehydration may well explain all the findings except the higher lymphocyte count (compared to the polymorphonuclear cells count). In any case this not something that raises suspicions for an urgent situation particularly since you're having no symptoms.
