Eosinophilia
I recent had a total blood count test, where all the parameters seemed within reference intervals, except Eosinophils, which was at 18 (Range given was 1-6). The test impression said "Normocytic normochromic blood picture with Eosinophilia". What does this mean? I had a season change allergy with cough and congestion recently.
