Hi, welcome to HCM I am Dr Das
First of all , hemoglobin is normal for a female. All other hematocrit values are within normal limit except MCH MCHC, which indicates mild decrease. As such there is no anemia but considering the level of all MCH MCHC , HPLC is suggested. Do this test to rule out congenital hemoglobin variant.
Relative lymphocytosis occurs in many conditions including viral infection.
