On a couple blood test now my WBC goes almost below range like 4.2 and the range in 4.0 but when this happens my hemoglobin and hematocrit levels go up. What gives? My dr doesn't seem concerned but I don't want my WBC dropping especially now that I have the flu?

Is the WBC dropping only caused by abx if that's the case while I'm sick with flu symptoms wouldn't it be better to go off abx?

My daughter and I constantly had low wbc counts. It is the one symptom that led me to the Lyme diagnosis.

Our levels finally hit 4.0 now after a year of treatment. There were months where our counts were running below 1.3.

Good news....our counts are up and we are both feeling much better than before.
