Apparently, there are many possible causes for an abnormally high lymphocyte count.

Medfriendly mentions the following:

"A lymphocyte level that is more than 40% is considered to be abnormally high. Some basic causes of a high lymphocyte count are the flu and the chickenpox. Other causes of a high lymphoocyte level include tuberculosis, mumps, rubella, varicella, whooping cough, brucellosis, and herpes simplex. "

Wikipedia states that - "An increase in lymphocyte concentration is usually a sign of a viral infection (in some rare case, leukemias are found through an abnormally raised lymphocyte count in an otherwise normal person)."

my mom is facing high lymphocyte count and she is getting fever regularly from last one month but its value is just 99/100 degree. Ultrasounds reports are all normal.what could be the reason for such abnormal high rate of lymphocyte  and how can we lower down.

Is any thing we need to worry and cross check.
