Is Absolute Monocytes Being 165 Dangerous?

I recently got blood work done and everything came back in the normal range except for my absolute monocytes which were at 165. I am a 25 year old student who went to see my family doctor last week for extreme fatigue. I do have rheumatoid arthritis as well as stomach problems which I take Protonix daily as well as Celebrex, Allegra, and a multivitamin. What could be the cause for everything else to be normal (lipids, CMP, vit D and B, T3 and T4, as well as everything else in the CBC) except for the absolute monocytes?
