A member asked:
Do recent or current flu and cold and fever cause monocyte to be too low in a blood test with too high lymphocyte in the same test ?

WBC differential: Yes, this can happen. But you are taking lab tests too seriously out of the context of your current illness. Do not worry about these values, they will correct.
