    My weight-training regime includes squats and for my age I do well to maintain a healthy muscle mass. I would have thought that by squatting regularly this would hasten the formation of white blood cells (as they are exclusively manufactured in the femur bone).
    To my surprise today, my GP informed me that I had a low count.
    Now, after hearing the first 5 minutes of this talk, I have come to understand it .. I have Ross River virus where the symptoms are still apparent.

    My wbc was 4.2, but neutrophils came out at only 1.62 and 1.67 a month apart. Doc says fine in normal range but I often see range starting at 1.8 or 2. I'm holding on to the idea that lower neutrophils can actually be good normal for some people indicating low inflammation. I read a study that people that took up exercise and increased there oxygen capacity had lower neutrophils. Also neutrophils are lower in the morning. Still I'd love to get it out of my head the idea there would be something wrong with my bone marrow. Will retest again in a while, afternoon next time!

  • @irvpaton8626

    A low WBC is a good thing. A high WBC, even when in normal reference range, is a marker for inflammation. WBC is a strong predictor of mortality, with higher numbers associated with higher death rate. In a healthy person, WBC may be 4 or 5, but will quickly rise if needed to fight a disease. I got all this info from the video titled "What is the Ideal White Blood Cell Count?" at the Nutrition Facts site. However, from my own experience, if you have a high fever, and a WBC below 4, then you are very sick.

    From my recent blood test my WBc level is 2.3 xE9/L. Normal is 4. My neutrophils are 1.2 x E9/L and my lymphocytes are 0.7xE9/L. They dropped since the test a month before that.
    I went to my family doctor because I have been feeling zero energy. Sometimes I get brain fog and don't even have energy to talk and hold my phone is someone calls. I feel in lightheaded and like my legs are heavy and I will pass out. My family doctor brushed it off and I said was probably sick when I got the test. I was not. My iron is borderline, but the pharmacist told me it is not that low to be anemic. My doctor just said to eat more meat and won't investigate further. I have been taken iron supplements for about two months and eating more red meat, but I still feel bad.
    Could this still be because of the iron or is it something else?

    The NYC accent, hate to say, but it makes him sound like he belongs in a Scorsese film, not giving advice on white blood cells. nation was explained like he's talking to a kindergartener which is kind of condescending, which goes along with how the medical profession views it's public as being ignorant. primary care doctor should work with the patient they're familiar with to figure out what could be causing it and try a few things before referring out. vegetarians for example are known to produce less blood cells in general red and white.. and if somebody is dieting and vegetarian it can wreak havoc on your blood cells. They mention TB .. but don't tell you which type would lower blood cells. I'm thinking military TB which is a bloodstream infection.. but I'm not sure if you can have military TB, without having pulmonary. the thing about TB is unless it presents as pulmonary doctors in America are completely ignorant and negligent to diagnosing it. when in fact up to 25% of TB manifests outside of the lungs and never presents as a cough.

    My doctor said I should see a hematologist. I'll call CNN instead.
    My doctor said my white blood cell count was low. So, I left without asking anything about it and wrote a note to CNN asking if I should be worried. Am I doing the right thing? Should I listen to my doctor? I mean, why would my doctor send me to a specialist? Is this a trap and they are going to steal my body? Please CNN. What do I do?

      Yes. It could be a side effect. Anti depressants messed up my health. It caused me to have gastritis, heart palpitations, and nerve issues. I always feel very weak now. Every time I get blood work done, my WBC is low. I think I may have developed an infection or autoimmune disease. I always eat healthy, plenty of high quality meats and vegetables. The only thing that changed was the antidepressants.

      Judging by my own health I would say very much so. Unfortunately therevare so many deadly diseases connected with this that it could bankrupt you in testing alone and the treatment can be as deadly as leaving things alone so they will rarely ever tell you about that. Most just take a wait and see attitude to see which disease you have.

      It can be between 3.8 and 10.8 or 4.1 and 10.5 if I am not mistaken. For what I understand, yours is 4.9. Therefore you are in range
