    Hello.First of all it would be nice to see the full list of results,not just the WBC.Theese refference intervals are normal for 95% of the population, 2.5% will have elevated WBC which will be normal for them and 2.5% will have lower WBC again-normal.Since the results have been the same for 4 years i dont think you should worry.My lymphocytes are always on the high end or elevated.This has been so for like 5 years.Also do you have any other symptoms?
