Not unusual: It may take a while for WBC to return to normal. The CRP at 2 and the decrease in WBC is encouraging. If you are feeling better then the antibiotic is working./ I hope that is helpful. Best wishes and get well soon!

Something else: There is something which needs be checked on since the CRP indicates presence of significant inflammation. If you have joint or muscle symptoms, see a rheumatologist. Otherwise see a hematologist. Don't dealy.
