Blood test results - eosinophils

Good afternoon,

I recently spoke with my GP on another matter and she had a look at the results of recent blood tests ordered by my neurologist.

She noted that the eosinophils count had increased (doubled). She is sending me for further blood tests.


I had R1 Lemtrada March 2019 and R2 Lemtrada September 2020.

I feel well in myself and was wondering if anyone else had experienced this?

I had a similar result a couple of months back when being screened prior to DMT. The result didn’t raise any eyebrows. I put it down to my allergies (many) because these are the kind of cells that can secret inflammatory mediators. I don’t know if there is a connection with MS and I don’t know if this is commonly found in MS patients.
Are you asthmatic, get hay fever, or allergic to anything?

Hi thanks for replying, I don’t have any allergies or asthma, also no worms!
Not quite sure what it could be, having more bloods taken next week so hopefully answers then!
