Question 3

My eosinophil count is 9 and I'm not sure what's causing it. My doctor mentioned it could be related to asthma. Could this be a sign of something more serious or is it just part of my asthma condition?

Accepted Answer

An eosinophil count of 9% can indeed be linked to asthma, as elevated eosinophils are often seen in allergic conditions and respiratory issues like asthma. Its good that your doctor is monitoring it, and managing asthma with the right treatment can help regulate this. If you have more concerns or symptoms, follow up with your doctor for further clarification.
