Need immediate help: You must see a physician immediately to determine why you have abnormally low RBC and WBC countsas well as an abnormally low platelet count and likely iron-deficient anemia. If your absolute neutrophil count is low you could be at immediate risk of serious infection from immunosuppression. Why has whoever ordered your tests not contacted you?
