high amount of lymphocytes in the body
At age 22, having a high lymphocyte count as the sole abnormality on a CBC is most likely a benign process secondary to a recent viral infection. In about 2 to 4 weeks, you should have a repeat CBC with differential done to see if the elevation in lymphocytes persists. If so, you will need to see your physician to see what is causing the persistence in the elevation. Kenneth Myron Braunstein, MD READ MORE
