Variable diagnosis: This could be a due to a number of things.Proper treatment would require an identification of the cause through exam and testing before a treatment plan could be formulated. The eosinophils are up some in allergies, up a lot in some parasite infections, and very high in some blood disorders. The plan should originate from the doc who knows the kid the best, or his/her referral source.

See a doctor.: There are a number of reasons why your eosinophil count may be elevated. It is best to discuss this with your physician so that additional test can be ordered as needed.
