Abnormal Differential CBC

I was recently in the ED because of a severe GI reaction to a standard dose of Phenylephrine. While there, they ran a differential CBC and the results (attached/included) came back with a high total WBC, high absolute and % neutrophils, high absolute monocytes, low absolute and % lymphocytes. I'm a little worried about what this could mean. I'm an otherwise healthy 28 year old male.

Hi, nothing got attached but I'm assuming that no cell counts are sky high.

A myeloid leukemia wouldn't result in two cell lines multiplying because of malignancy. I'd guess the neut and mono increase resulted instead from the gut inflammation.
