Brief Answer:
Please provide the following information...

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

I have gone through the WBC count and noted a tendency to get reduced. While, lymphocytes levels show tendency to get slightly elevated.

At this point, I need to have the full blood report as I need to have a look at other blood parameters (RBC, MCH, etc.).

I want to also know:
- if you have experienced any infection recently (viral? bacterial?fungal?)
- any medication you have been using recently?
- have you noticed to be more sensible to infection recently?
- do you suffer of any other disease?
- have you run any medical consultation recently?

I need to have these data first before running into final conclusions.

Brief Answer:
Slightly elevated lymphocytes-due to asthma-induced inflammation...

Detailed Answer:
Hi back,

Thank you for providing your blood tests reports.

I have gone through the tests results, and noted as following:
- your erythrocyte levels are within normal range
- you have a slightly elevated lymphocyte level possibly related to asthma (inflammation).

Everything else is within normal range.

Let me know if you have further queries!
