Brief Answer:
Slightly elevated limphocyte level is not an issie.

Detailed Answer:
Hello.

Thank You for the query.

Can You please attach your CBC report so I can answer your question more precisely.

In general lymphocytes level i elevated due to an infection. It can be even a mild cold and you can get elevated lymphocytes.

I suggest You to have it repeated in a week or so.

More precise answer can be given if You attach CBC report.

I tried to attach the reports. can you let me know if you got it the number was 3.87 cut off was 3.30

Answered by Dr. Grzegorz Stanko (5 minutes later)

Brief Answer:
It does not seem serious at all.

Detailed Answer:
I do not see the report. Are You sure your question is about leukocytes?
According to the numbers given by You, you mean your WBC (white blood count) so called leukocytes are slightly (very slightly) elevated.
In case of serious issues this numbers get as high as 20 or even much more.
So like I said before, please have it repeated in a week or so.

Hope this helps
Regards

Brief Answer:
No reason to be concerned.

Detailed Answer:
According to the report You have only slightly elevated WBC. This number represents total white blood cells count including leukocytes, monocytes, eosynophiles and so on.
Such number does not represent anything serious fir sure. Even mild cold makes this number much higher. So I do not see any reason to be concerned.

Brief Answer:
It is not a HIV infection

Detailed Answer:
Well, being infected 8 years ago with HIV without a treatment for so long would have caused AIDS symptoms and death.
And for sure You wpuld have much worse blood tests results.
So my advice for You is to forget aboit possible hiv infection 9 years ago.
