What does cd8 suppressor t cells being low mean? is it a bad thing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It depends: The interpretation of laboratory tests is always done in the context of the symptoms, and why the test was ordered in the first place. The only place to address a question like this is with the physician who ordered the test, not the internet.
