A member asked:

I had my blood work done and my wbc was 14.7 and my absolute neutrophil count was 9.9, my absolute monocytes was 0.9. should i be worried?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: All laboratory results need to be interpreted in the clinical context and the doctor who ordered the tests is usually in the best position to do that. Having said that, if you do not have symptoms, it would be prudent to repeat the test in a few weeks. The usual cause of neutrophilic leukocytosis is bacterial infection. There is no reason to worry, but do consult your doctor for a follow-up test.
