4 -- The eosinophils (normal 1%-4%) and basophils (0.5%-1%) respond in hypersensitivity responses. The lab values and dyspnea suggest a hypersensitivity response. Pancytopenia would be indicated by very low levels of the laboratory values, a respiratory infection or chronic bacterial infection would have increases in the WBC (normal 4000-10,000 per mm3), neutrophils (normal 55%-70%), monocytes (normal 2%-8%), and lymphocytes (normal 20%-40%).
