Hello dear
Understand your concern.
I think your child is suffering from typhoid or viral infection.
Because lymphocyte count is very high suggest infection.
Hb, MCH and Hct is low suggest anemia mostly microctytic.
As lymphocyte count is increased:
It may be due to tuberculosis and lymphocyte disorder.
Hope this may help you
Best regards
Dr. Sagar
