A member asked:
Normal wbc count of 6.6, monocyte of 12? is this a concern? i have no symptoms?
2 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
A monocyte percentage of 12% with a normal WBC count is absolutely nothing to worry about and is of no clinical significance. In life and in medicine, don't get in habit of worrying about isolated numbers. It is symptoms that signify disease, albeit many illnesses/diseases are "silent killers" and need to be looked for. No need to be concerned.

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. Talk to the doctor who ordered the tests. Having said that, The data you provided is not a cause for concern. Wish you good health!
