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.
