CBC blood test shows NEU is high

I don't have all the results from my CBC blood test yet but I looked on my clinic website to see my current results (not all in yet), and it shows LYM is 1 point low and the NEU is 4.4 points higher than normal.  Normal is 71.3% or below and my NEU is 75.7%.  Not sure what this means yet.  Doctor hasn't called me yet to explain anything.

The nurse just said that this is nothing to worry about.  It's still close enough to the normal range.

I just read on a website that neutrophils are more numerous in people with MS.

Sandy,
Without all of the values, it is impossible to say what meaning your LYM (lymphocytes) being 1 point low and your NEU (neutrophils) being slightly elevated have. The values are not too far from normal but one would need the rest of the results for any conclusions.

Hopefully, your doctor will call soon.
