A/G RATIO (Albumin/Globulin Ratio) the A/G ratio is the albumin value divided by the globulin value. A low ratio is found in a variety of disease states related to those of liver or kidney and to infections. A high level is not considered clinically significant.
LYMPHOCYTES are involved in protection of the body from viral infections such as measles, rubella, chickenpox, or infectious mononucleosis. Elevated levels may indicate an active viral infection and a depressed level may indicate an exhausted immune system or if the neutrophils are elevated an active infection. What did your doctor say? Maybe need to schedule a follow up. They aren't that far off normal so I wouldn't get that worried.

Are you vegetarian? Albumin is a protein that is the major serum protein. The lymphs being low means nothing. The normal ranges are the large portion of the bell curve in any given population.
