A high number of eosinophils (eosinophilia) are often linked to a variety of disorders. A high eosinophil count may be due to:
- Allergic disease
- Parasite infection, such as worms
- Certain fungus infections
- Asthma
- Autoimmune diseases
- Eczema
- Hay fever
- Leukemia and other blood disorders
- Hypereosinophilic syndrome
Erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR), is a blood test that can reveal inflammatory activity in your body. Your range is normal and is suggestive of an inflammatory activity in your body. I would advise you to visit MD general medicine s that you can be examined and your reports can be clinically correlated and the underlying cause can be found and treated accordingly.
