Re: Low WBC

Thanks so much Marimac - I can add that in 2006 it was 5.2 and then fell consistently down to 3.9 and now it's 3.8. Most labs consider 3.8 on the low side of normal but what has her doctor concerned is the fact that even with B-12 shots, it's going down, not up. Her RBC is normal as well as all her other tests. She hasn't heard yet on the additional testing for leukemia and you can imagine how stressed she is.

She feels perfectly fine with no other factor such as swollen nodes or overall sickness.

I guess the doctor wants to make sure but it is so stressful having to wait. I told her it may be just a normal thing for her but she's not very comforted bt that!
