Hi Thanks for asking Looking at your reports and complaints, my opinion is 1. Raised monocyte counts is indicative of viral infection. It will settle to normal levels once your fever comes down. 2. ESR increase occurs with infection/ inflammation. So it takes some time to settle. 3. Increase in enzymes are also related to infective process. 4. Do not bother much about the counts as they are not significant. Hope this helps
