Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for writing to HCM ,
I've gone through your query and understand your concern.

Your findings may suggests mildly raised AEC(absolute eosinophil count) and lymphocyte percentage.

Absolute eosinophil count measures the number of white blood cells called as eosinophils in blood. Eosinophils may be increased in allergic diseases,parasitic infections etc.

Lymphocytes may also be increased in viral infection etc.

Findings are generally not very serious but it may need clinical correlation.

You may need repeat test after some time.

Get well soon.

Hope I have answered your query.
Further queries are most welcome.

Take Care
