Arrow CBC Differential: What does PMN% and LYM% mean?

I had some recent bloodwork done, and my
PMN% was 72.2 ( high) range ( 50-70)

LYM%20.1 ( considered low) (25-40)

my ABS PMN was 4.8 ( 1.5-7.8)
my ABS LYM was 1.3 ( 1.0-4.5)

I called my dr and the nurse said that they look more at the ABS numbers and that I was ok, yet, the lab highlighted that I was high and low in the Pmn% and LYM %. What does this mean and stand for? I am usually good at figuring things out, but I don't know. If all they look at is the ABS numbers, why run the others?

thank you. Jess
