I am not sure If I have HIV or not. I have had sex many times but with condom and it never show symptom. my WBC is 4.55 with normal range (4-10). Neutrophill 44.2 % with normal range (46.5-75). Lymphocyte 45.8 with normal range (12-44). Monocyte 5% with normal range (0-11.2). Eosinophill 4.8% (0-9.5). Basophill .2% (0-2.5) Is it possible to have HIV ?

Thanks for query at HCM
Your test results of DLC shows that you have high lymphocytes which mean chronic infection likely. You have not described any symptoms you are having. If HIV is your main concern I suggest you take serological test for antibodies HIV by ELISA or p24 assay. If you had unsafe sex then there is always a possibility of HIV and STD transmission. You might have to undertake certain investigations like x-ray, ESR etc to rule out chronic infective diseases like TB.
Take care!
