Elevated WBC, Lymph Results High. What Does It Mean?

I am a 50 year old female and recently had a check-up. Every year my WBC is slightly elevated. This time it was 10.6. Also this year, my #Lymph result was 4.0 and the paperwork from doctor indicated that the normal range was .6 -3.4 Do these two results have anything to do with each other, and should I be concerned about the Lymph results?

Hi,

Your WBC count is slightly elevated according to you .What is the reference range written on the report. If it is towards upper side of normal limit with this lymphocyte count then you should not worry as you can have these values after mild viral illness.
