Dear sir

High neutrophylls and low lymphocytes indicates acute infection which might be due to diabetes.

Secondly Diabetes itself might cause impaired phagocytic response which causes increase in the neutrocytes count. It increases the risk of infections even though it is raised.

So the main problems is with increased blood sugars..

So if you control your blood sugars properly then I think No need to worry.

If you still experience the same status then get one bone marrow aspiration cytology done.

Thanks
