Recently just had blood work drawn at the VA.

I had blood work done and a few numbers have me concerned. My LYMPHOCYTES number is low, 0.76 out of 1-3. My percentage though is 22% out of 15-41. Also my MONO % IS HIGH AT 17% out of 1-10. My WBC is 3.42 and my ALT is 65 out of 8-54. Looking back at old tests looks like these numbers are getting worse, some have fluctuated though.

jasonk1978,
We are not doctors on here but I am a microbiologist. I can try to give you some advice. Your Lymphocytes are not really low. But your monocytes are  a little high and liver enzymes somewhat high too. Can you tell me something about your symptoms? Do you drink a lot of alcohol? Also, how is your diet. Do you have swollen lymph nodes in your neck and feel fatigued. What is your age? Have you had any recent travel to another country or what country do you live in? Have any diarrhea or gone swimming in fresh water or hiking? If you can answer these questions it would help to see what is going on  or direct you to a doctor.
thank you,
