Abnormal full blood count

Hi all. My blood count has come back with high white blood cells, and high neutrophil levels and I needed to see the dr with the next appt being over the phone in 2 weeks! Midwife says she isn’t worried from what she sees it says normal but on my NHS app it says abnormal. Also states that my eiosinophil levels are high, and my haemotocrit and haemoglobin concentration is low.
I had a flu/cold a couple weeks ago. I'm also on insulin and metformin for diabetes. But feel fine otherwise.
Anyone else had this? I'm 27 weeks on Friday.

Sounds like an infection, maybe, and anaemia. Ignore the app saying it’s abnormal, in pregnancy the normal ranges are different but the app doesn’t take that into account.
