hi, high lymphocytes and low neutrophil count seen in many conditions. msot common is viral infection, many other infection like malaria also have high lymphocytes count. so you need to go for detail blood analysis to know the exact cause. most probably its due to viral infection. moreover your symptoms are also related to some viral infection. consult physician and take treatment accordingly.
