Brief Answer:
This is a normal white blood cells count

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

your result is just fine. What's more important than percentages is the absolute number which is normal. More than 1000/microliter is normal for lymphocytes (and any percentage higher than 18% but lower than 43%).
The rest of the cells you've mentioned are also normal.

So this test is no reason for worries!

Kind Regards!
