Brief Answer:
Upload report and add units of the lab values

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Could you care to put the units of the blood counts as well. can you upload the copy of the report from the upload feature on the right side of the page? It is difficult to comment without units. I would be happy to find out what made them take blood counts? Why did you visit the hospital or clinic.
Deciphering the lab values without complete picture of the patient may be futile most times.

I will be waiting.

Brief Answer:
Units only

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

Just mention the units. Also why did you see the doctor or got these tests done? Explain in detail if you have any medical history or using any medicines.

In fact you can take photo of the reports with your phone and upload them here. It is easy.

I'm still having trouble uploading tests as I'm on a iPad. I saw the dr for shingles that I think have been misdiagnosed and is really seborrheac dermatitis and blepharitis

Brief Answer:
Infection process

Detailed Answer:
Hi,

The report is in favor of infection. Most likely a viral infection then it should be shingles. I cannot comment anything further as there are very little information available here.
The metamyelocytes and myelocytes appear in the peripheral blood when there is infection. Their count should be less than 1% of the total leucocytes. That is why I wanted to calculate the percent which I think is not possible now as you are unable to upload.
All the best and I hope your recover soon from the infection from whatever it is.
