What Causes Low Eosinophils Count In Blood Test Results?

My blood test showed absolute eosinophils of 4. I have diabetes and chronic inflammation (arthritis) always. What could cause such a low number? My A1C is always about 5.8 or so, tested every 3 months so I'm pretty sure it's not my diabetes. But could my arthritis be a result of that?
