Flow cytometry vs manual count

Hello. Anyone know why there might be such descrepencies in the manual blast count vs the cd 34 blast count by flow cytometry? My peripheral blood blast counts done by manual smear have been 6% and 10% (different pathologists). The flow cytometry shows 1% blasts.

Beyond that, all my counts are dropping, except my basos and monos are high. All this after 12 years stability with a MDS 5q- diagnosis. I had a BMB yesterday, results next week.
