CD4 (helper cells) 43% (30-61)

Absolute CD4 + cells 527 (490-1740)

CD8 (supressor T cells) 28% (12-42)

Absolute CD8+ cells 340 (180-1170)

Helper/Suppressor Ratio 1.55 (0.86-5.00)

Absolute Lymphocytes 1274 (850-3900)

I see these are in range for Quest, but does anyone know how to break this down for me? It looks like the absolute cd4 levels are borderline low? But the % is ok? I know nothing about these results... thank you.
