white count is 5.5 range:(4.5-11.0)
I have been sick over 25 yrs. and have never had an abnormal white count. What I have had is a low ESR of 4 or 5, consistently low lymphocytes, and high neutrophils. All of these indicate stealth bacterial infection but are considered "normal" by my non-Lyme literate M.D.

Mine is currently 3.
Has been as low as 1.9 and this was on routine blood work prior to lyme diagnosis.
Cannot recall the last time my WBC was higher than 3.8 in the last 8 years or so.

12 - 15 over last few years. Doesn't this rule out Lyme as the cause? I was diagnosed with positive Elisa three times since 2005. Now Clinically diagnosed with Bart and Lyme.
But can it be Lyme with always getting high out of range wbc?

Beagle-My doc says that with a very few patients she sees a rise in WBC's. Mine went from normal to around 13 as I progressed in treatment. My WBC's were never low, even when I was extremely ill.
