What Causes An Increase In The Eosinophils Count?
sir/madam,
i am from hyderabad,andhra pradesh. My mother is having a high count of eosinoplills and was administered various anti-biotics by different doctors. She is also coughing a lot. Could this be related to any blood disorder or any infection related to lungs. She went through all the tests and her chest x-ray is clear, but her CBP shows a high count of eosinophills.
