My husband had to get medical test done for office in December where CBC showed eosinophils as 10% and platelet count as 1.46 10³/mm...now in March for an ACL reconstruction surgery when he checked Doctor mentioned platelets are low as 1.2 and eosinophils are high again with low RBC...in September for a regular check up all parameters were normal except Esnophilia at 7.8... attached both reports for reference...is this a cause of concern...he was feeling weak from last two months ...he had viral fever in Jan not sure if Covid..since vaccinated he could recover quickly... I'm worried about his CBC condition as DR asked to keep a check on platelets and Esnophilia...is it something to worry
RBC counts are in normal range.
Platelet count is bit lower but not an issue to worry for now.
Eosinophils are raised. Most common cause being the worm infestation.
Next Steps

You can give tab albendazole 400mg stat with plenty of water
