Hi, dear
I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.
Lymphocytes count are very high in 8 month old baby. It is normal variation in that age. If his differential count is normal except high lymphocytes then no need to worry about leukemia. It is due to age. No chance of leukemia. Don't worry about that. Just be relaxed.
Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using health care magic. Wish you a very good health.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern such high WBC does not indicate any danger pathology but this may be due to some infection that may have little bacterial load some times dose not need any treatment and this can not be "leukemia" just forget about this, hope this information helps, take care.
