You need not worry about the mild elevation of Lymphocytes, as it can happen in any ongoing viral illness.
A mild or moderate increase in ESR may indicate bodily inflammations and the presence of other conditions such as anemia, aging, pregnancy, diabetes, cardiac diseases and some types of infections. If may also be elevated during menstruation. It would be helpful if the reports can be shared with a physician for optimal advice.
I hope the blood samples were given in a fasting state, as food intake may alter the results.
