In most cases, high neutrophils count is commonly associated with an active bacterial infection in the body. In rare cases, the high neutrophil count may also result from blood cancer or leukemia. The following are the common causes of neutrophilia or high neutrophil count:
What does it mean if your Segmented Neutrophils (Percent) result is too high? An increased percentage of neutrophils, called neutrophilia, may result from an inflammatory disorder (rheumatoid arthritis, gout), from infection (acute or chronic), from certain cancers (myelocytic leukemia), or from stressors (eclampsia in pregnant women, injury, burns).
You should also avoid foods that cause inflammation like:
What does it mean when absolute neutrophils are high? If your neutrophil counts are high, it can mean you have an infection or are under a lot of stress. Neutropenia, or a low neutrophil count, can last for a few weeks or it can be chronic.
Having a high percentage of neutrophils in your blood is called neutrophilia. This is a sign that your body has an infection. Neutrophilia can point to a number of underlying conditions and factors, including: infection, most likely bacterial.

Code D64. 9 is the diagnosis code used for Anemia, Unspecified, it falls under the category of diseases of the blood and blood-forming organs and certain disorders involving the immune mechanism. Anemia specifically, is a condition in which the number of red blood cells is below normal.
Most of the time, doctors use a complete blood count (CBC) to check for leukocytosis. A CBC can be part of a routine physical, or your doctor might use it to help diagnose a specific illness. Another test, called a white blood cell differential or "diff," is sometimes done at the same time.
