Tx the pt, not the #: The numbers you present, don't mean much to a physician because it lacks clinical context- why was the test done in the first place? Are you on meds that can affect your WBC counts. More troubling is the prescription for silver colloid. Though silver has antimicrobial features, there is no definitive benefit whatsoever from "silver syrup" or other silver liquid forms.
