Hi Jenny and welcome,

I have this niggling feeling that maybe you are quoting the precentage of your white cells taken up by lymphocytea, a common mistake. Please check that this is not the case. Absolute counts are what's important and are sometimes indicated by a # or 'Abs' next to them. Importantly your counts appear to be stable and we have members in watch and wait with much higher counts than yours.
