CBC - Lab suggest leukemia?

Partner is stressed about a recent CBC fattached from Chula as the bottom of the result is a comment from lab technician suggesting a problem like "leukemia" (not my translation)
Using my degree in googling this is contrary to the metrics of WBC, RBC and platelet which seem to be trending in the counter direction that would be used to suggest leukemia from 2020 to 2022.
 
It should be noted, she wasn't feeling great on the day of the hospital visit, took a headache tablet once back from the hospital and slept for an hour or two that afternoon so I guess she was running a light fever on the day of the visit. (it wasn't covid - two seperate branded atk tests). Also she had a tumour removed from womb in early 2020 - I believe the comparison test was months later.
 
I guess the practical course of action is just go see a doctor tonight at any private hospital for an opinion to blunt the worry? But any insight on the metric oddities I've "googled" would be helpful

Correction - grrr she wasn't very clear at all ????‍♂️. Was not at Chula was a basic health test organized by work some weeks ago and only just read by her, so the headache/fever on the day situation doesn't apply either nor the sense of urgency I think. Think the statements probably just auto generated based on reference ranges.

This is a completely normal CBC result. 

 

The notes at the bottom are generic explainations of what type of problems a CBC can identify. They are not specific comments on her results (which, as mentioned, are completely normal).
