What Do the Results Mean?

Results/Exams

Normal Results

A normal blood sample reading will show fewer than 350 eosinophil cells per microliter of blood.

Abnormal Results

If you have over 350 eosinophil cells per microliter of blood, then it indicates you have a disorder known as eosinophilia. This can be due to any of the following:

an allergic reaction to parasitic worms

an autoimmune disease

eczema

asthma

seasonal allergies

leukemia

ulcerative colitis

scarlet fever

lupus

Crohn’s disease

An abnormally low eosinophil count can be the result of intoxication from alcohol or excessive production of cortisol, which is a steroid produced naturally in the body.
