A member asked:

I received my lab results with absolute eosinophils at 0l (reference range 15-500 ul) , bilirubin total at 1.3 h(range 0.2-1.2), what does this mean?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nothing: When only a few cells are counted, as is the norm when nobody's really worried about them, zero is fine. Bilirubin 1.3 means nothing apart from a clinical picture. The reference range is designed so that several % of healthies fall above it, and many folks have gilbert's non-disease in which it's always up some. Don't treat labs, treat people. Relax.
