A member asked:

I read that t- cells can fluctuate. if i was on antibiotics for a minor infection could that have caused a decrease in t-cells?

Infection: Since T cell regulates immune function , one would likely see changes during an infection. However antibiotic per se has no effect on T cells' immune function- unless a drug allergy has developed.
