Did any of you get these results on a CBC before or after being DX with Lyme?

Mine were always normal, but I've had other weird things on my bloodwork for a couple of years.
I've surfed on this in depth and I think there's no way to tell what it really means generally. Low lymphocytes aren't diagnostic of Lyme.
Anemia and low neutrophils could be diagnostic of Babesia.
Other than that it seems like people's bloods are all over the map, from totally normal to very weird.

I have low lymphocytes. Like Dr. S in California says, Lyme is a lymphocytic disease. I've read your other posts. Going by your history, location, and just a gut feeling, I believe you have Lyme.
This is an old study, but it's still relevant in regards to Lyme causing lymphopenia (low lymphocytes). This doesn't mean that everyone with Lyme will have lymphopenia, of course.
