Viral infection: A high white blood cell count is leukocytosis (generic), and out of the PMNs, Lymphocytes, Monocytes, Eosinophils and Basophils, your test showed an increase in the # / % of Lymphocytes (specific). They usually are elevated when your body is fighting off a virus (like the common cold).
