Two different tests?: It looks like you may have the results from 2 different kinds of tests. i would talk to our primary doctor and have her review the labs

Need more info.: In order to properly interpret this, we need to see the rest of your blood counts. If you have the results available, an easy way would be to do a consult here on health tap and send us a photograph of the lab results. Or you can just schedule a follow up appointment with your primary doctor. Regardless, do not ignore it. Good luck.
