Brief Answer:
It depends on the laboratory, age and method used. Upload your full report!

Detailed Answer:
HI,

These values can vary depending on the various laboratory techniques and reagents used. That is why we can often have some discrepancies. I will suggest that you upload the report you got form the hospital in its entirety for me to review and tell whether your numbers are normal or not per the test and procedure used.
