Brief Answer:
Possibly stress due to abnormal lipid profile

Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Jyothi BL and I will be answering your query.
Based on your query and attached report, my opinion is as follows:

1. Overall WBC count is mildly raised. Neutrophil percentage, even though mildly high is still within normal range. The monocyte count is mildly raised.
2. Your lipid profile is highly abnormal. This stress or any stress has probably cause the body stress enough to cause increased neutrophil. This is reflected in increased overall WBC count.
3. Monocyte count is not to be worried specifically. Maybe stress could be the cause.
4. WBC range is not to be worried about. Lipid profile corrections with lifestyle modifications and medication is necessary at the earliest.

Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.
