High eosinophils: Eosinophils are a white blood cell that go up most commonly with allergies esp. Asthma and hay fever, allergic reactions to medication, and in response to parasite infections. However, there are MANY other causes and it can be very complicated to sort out. Good luck.

Incomplete entry: Please, enter the full CBC if you have it. The numbers you entered are abnormal: too few lymphocyes and too many eosinophils. Patient may be immunosuppressed (low lymphs) and may have a parasitic infection or hypersensitivity/allergic reaction to something ((high eos). Provide age and some clin info. Lab tests cannot be interpreted properly just by themselves
