I've just gotten my blood test results back, and everything looks normal except for a high level of plateletcrit, sitting at 3.30 mLL. I don't have any other symptoms right now, but should I be concerned about this? What could it mean, and is there something specific I should do or look out for?

I'm looking at my blood test results and noticed my lymphocytes absolute count is 3.13, whereas the reference range is between 1.0 and 3.0. I'm a bit concerned and curious about what lymphocytes are and why my count might be higher than the reference range. Could you guide me on what steps I should take next to understand this better?

go for another test

My latest blood test shows a platelet count of 85,000, and Im really worried. Could this be a sign of dengue, or is it more likely a regular viral fever? Ive attached the test report for you to see. What do you think?

I'm really worried about having high WBC levels and I'm scared it might be related to some kind of blood cancer. Could you let me know which type of doctor I should consult for this issue? I just want to make sure I'm talking to the right specialist.
