Hi! Your blood test reports show a high percentage of eosinophils (15%). The normal range is 1%-6%. Eosinophils contain several allergy producing chemicals.
The'all over itching' you have is due to an increased number of eosinophils which then release those chemicals lead to the itching sensation.. A high eosinophil count is seen in disorders of allergy. A detailed history would reveal the reason for allergy in your case. Do consult your doctor. All the best!
