SHOULD BE FINE!: RANGES FOR DIFFERENT WBC'S ARE JUST THAT A RANGE OF NORMALS THE SLIGHT DIFFERENCE IN THE 2 COUNTS COULD INDICATE A MILD VIRAL EXPOSURE AND NOTHING MORE WOULD NOT BE CONCERNED

Lab test variability: The upper and lower normal ranges for lab tests are determined by how far the value is from average, so 5% of people will be abnormal" in any particular lab test. So I ran 20 lab tests on anyone then at least one would be "abnormal", but you could still be totally healthy. In general, small shifts in lymphycytes & neutrophils less than 10% in an otherwise healthy person should not be worrisome.
