Q: what does a high wbc (11.5) and high lymphocyte count (3.5) mean? the rest, rbc's platelets, are normal?

: Those results mean mild leukocytosis with predominant lymphocytosis (increase lymphocyte count) which is commonly seen in several viral illnesses. In general, this abnormality is commonly seen in daily practice. However, the correct interpretation should be based on clinical history and physical examination. Take care.
