It's normal.: The lab results you listed are normal. So this test result does not help to explain about your wound-healing. Look for things in your lifestyle that might affect immune function, such as food choices, body mass index, alcohol, and stress.

No: This is within normal and there is absolutely nothing to worry about. 1.0 and 1.1 are essentially the same.
