I've had labs up the wa-zoo due to my thyroid. Is there any telling sign i have a chronic infection?

Some things I usually look for would be things that show that your body is fighting inflammation or infection such as WBC, monocytes, sed rate, C reactive protein. Low RBC can be a sign of anemia which can be caused by babesia. and watch your liver numbers which are ALT AST. Also if they ran an ANA, anything unusual. Depends of how detailed the blood work is.

haven't had ANA run in along time.
cc-reactive and see rate were run a while ago a nd i don't recall them being a problem.
RBC was run 1/29 and it was 4.77 range 3.8-5.10
wbc 7 range 3.8-10.8
momocyts 6.4 range doesn't say a range/// down via quest.
my hematocrit was high last time and previous times creeping up. Does this mean anything?

AST-19- 10-30
alt- 5.2 4.8-5.6

MY MAG RBC is low 4.4 and wont budge

should we pay attention to neutrophils and lymphocytes?

A C4a and a C3a are used to help differentiate between earlier or chronic infections in lyme.
