High Eosinophils and measuring the lesser white cells

[Guest guest]

Getting ready for an overdue hema/onc visit, going through my lab numbers and

charting the latest. I see that I've had high abs Eosinophils several times in

the last six months: 2.7 rather than the normal of .05-.55. My WBC is very high

at 272k, so I know some the 1% Eos which is reported could be inaccurate.

Should I take the Eos and Baso numbers with a grain of salt? (Sometimes Baso is

high and Eos is not, or the reverse.) Guess my question is back to .. when you

have a very high WBC, how accurate are the differentials for these lesser white

cells?

Thanks
