Is It Normal To Have 600 Eosinophil Count?
My 6 year old grandaughter has had a eosinophil count of 650 for a few years. Some times it s a normal count but usually high. She has no parasites or allergies. Her stomach hurts when she eats and she has only gaines 2 lbs. this year. Sometimes she has high fevers of unknown origin. She then sleeps for 2 days and they go away. She is VERY energetic but has random health issues all the time. Help! Pam

Hello and welcome to HCM,
A normal eosinophil count is between 150-300 per cubic milliliter.
Eosinophil count of 650 is high and abnormal.
High eosinophil count is seen in cases of allergies, parasitic infection, and neoplasms.
High eosinophil count with fever suggests any of the conditions like- hyper eosinophilic syndrome, tropical eosinophilia, Loeffer's syndrome etc.
You need to consult your physician to find out the cause of raised eosinophil count.
Thanks and take care
