A member asked:

I got lab results back & my neutro (abs) was 1.6, lymph % was 48.3. my last 2 lab tests: neutro 1.7, lymph % 44.7 neutro 1.7, lymp 55.4. worrisome?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Neutrophil count is low-normal as far as this pathologist is concerned. The test really counts the ones that are circulating in the blood; the large majority are "hanging out" on the walls of the little veins. Lowish counts above 1000 aren't a health concern. Do keep an eye on this, especially if this is new and/or you're taking medications that can be neutrophil poisons.
