Hi. I have a history of low WBC.  My count is a little over 3.  I also have had mono for the past 3 years.  Am waiting to see if I still have it.  As of Feb. Yes.  Yesterdays test results will come today.  History of anemia, also.  So, internist is referring me to a specialist.  Saw one in 2009, he suggested daily injections.  Did not follow through with that.  I am a 55 year old female, principal of a school and pretty active, before mono, that is.  So I took the summer easy, sleep 9 or 10 hours daily, slim, not over-weight at all.  I live 2 hours away from Houston.  Should I just head to md Anderson and get to the bottom of this?  Something is going on.
Hi, Thanks for asking. Based on your query, my opinion is as follows.1. WBC count over 3000 is good, even though it is on the lower limit of normal.2. Anemia along with it, suggests possible it B12 deficiency. Take B-complex vitamins along with iron. It should improve your counts.3. As the platelet counts are normal, not to worry for now. Get a complete hologram done along with serum iron, B12 and folic acid assay. Based on deficiency, adequate correction can be done. Hope it helps. Any further queries, happy to help again.
