My NEUT% is low
EOS% is high
EOS# was at the last digit it could be before being flagged.
During the exam the Family Practioner did find a spot on my cervix that was in question. He only visits our clinic once a month and my vaginal swabs will not be back for another two weeks. Am I worrying over nothing?

I wouldn't worry too much about that CBC. It doesn't matter so much what Neut% is, more what the absolute number is. That's true of the eos as well, and eos are white cells, not red, and are often elevated in people who have allergies, and otherwise are often elevated for no clear reason at all.

NEUTrophils are a bacteria fighting type of white blood cell.
EOSoniphil is a type of red blood cell.
These results are insignificant in comparison to the overall picture of your cbc. Unless you have an acute or chronic disease process such as lupus, cancer, or anemia....there shouldn't be anything read into just 2 abnormals. If it was a concern, they would have contacted you by phone. I've been told I had a " spot" before, too. Turned out to be nothing but some "slightly abnormal" cells that were benign--and not present at my subsequent paps.

Yeah, both neutrophils and eosinophils are white blood cells....these are required for the body to fight off infections.
Many conditions in medicine can cause very low neutrophils (cancer, HIV are just some examples). I would not start worrying about this now...are you just getting over a recent 'cold' or 'flu'?
High eosinophils can be seen with allergies/asthma and even parasite infection.
I would just wait to get PAP test results and repeat lab test after one month to see where you stand.

A higher than normal eosinophil count is usualy indicative or a viral condition in your body...check that out with your nurse practitioner at the same time that you find out what the cervical problem is. Try not to worry...these things can be helped.

Data you have provided is insufficient for anyone to guess what you have been having. Your age, marital status, menstrual history, sexual history, personal history, obstetrical history and family history..........all are required to find out your problem.
Low neutrophils doesn't have any great significance. As far as far as high eosinophils are concerned it might be just an allergy you might be having.

Whats your Hemoglobin level? I think this lesion has to be seen under the microscope... a test called Colposcopy. When was your last pap smear done? and what was the result?

PLEASE call the doctor or the nurse there to have them explain this to you. No one here can tell you based on you saying it's "high." Only the doctor can tell you what it means and they have the correct paperwork and your medical chart.

Ask your doctor to explain.
